No probs with the spelling...just reporting
I have tried changing buffers, cache to ram, and output buffer, but to no avail.
Interestingly.... some CDs play fine and others have dropouts... those that play fine all have retrieved artwork... those that don't do not..... do you have the same ?
I have replayed a CD with dropouts and they happen at the same point each time...though the CD is clean and works well on other players...
The cover database only picks up about one in 6 CDs... Perhaps include other sites ? (Beets seems to have that covered)

I also have the same problem with some CDs, but it's not related to whether they have a cover art or not, and in fact I don't understand how it could be related. I would say that my most problematic CDs are the older ones. I suppose that although they seem OK and work with conventional CD players, our cheap modern DVD players are more sensitive than high quality music CD players. I'll see how my new, more expensive USB DVD player performs when I get it.
As you can see from his replies, Tim is not interested in integrating CD players into moOde audio, so I will continue to work on that for myself, as I prefer books to PDFs even though I have a Qobuz HiRes subscription. I must be a bit too old-fashioned, but I like to talk to the artists at the end of a concert and buy their CDs, and I like to open their boxes back home to listen to them while looking at the cover and reading the booklet.
So, to make it easier to talk, I've opened the "issues" section on GitHub, so feel free to fill it in. I will try to be as non-invasive as possible in the moOde code and develop a way to be as easy to install as possible. We'll see how far I'm able to go with this little project and if other people are old-fashioned enough to follow it ;-).
Cheers,
Eric
PS: I don't know Beets, I'll take a look at it and check if the integration is easy or not from python.
Just had the look, seems cool : https://beets.io/, after a deeper look perhaps not so easy to use.
I have also renamed the fork to distinguish it from its original version as only few code as still shared :
The new name of the GitHub repository is : https://github.com/coissac/moOdeCDPlayer
