Lots of "SEVERE: There was a problem submitting a query to musicbrainz"

[djmixman]

First: Great app! Thanks for the work… Just bought the full deal 3-4 days ago…

Next:
Everything has been working great up until I dumped a couple of thousand mp3s or so and now:

The past 2 days or so I’ve been getting A LOT of these errors:

“SEVERE: There was a problem submitting a query to musicbrainz for record number XXXX with filename XXXX: Index: XXXX Size: XXXX”

and mixed in amongst those there are a few timeouts…

A lot of these tracks I am looking for are popular. Some are rare…

Is there something wrong with musicbrainz? Am I hitting some sort of limit per day/hour/etc? Or am I just doing it wrong?

• Thanks

Edit: Ohhh there’s the edit button…

I think Musicbrainz has just had a few periods of being overloaded, but they are resolving that by banning some badly behaved clients.

Thanks for the update… hopefully it’ll smooth out over the next day or so…
