'''GnuDB''' is a service that was set up prior to the closure of [[freedb]] used for hosting [[CDDB]] data that uses the [[CDDB1]] format.

With the formal closure of freedb in 2019, a number of applications now use GnuDB as their freedb replacement.

== Applications ==
The following applications are GnuDB-aware:
* [[CDex]]
* [[Exact Audio Copy]] (native support from v1.6)
* [[fre:ac]] (native support)

== Configuration ==
In general, applications only need to have {{code|freedb.freedb.org}} changed to {{code|gnudb.gnudb.org}}.

Should an application not support HTTP 1.1, the following proxy settings can be used:

* Proxy server: {{code|proxy.gnudb.org}}
* Port: {{code|3128}}

An alternate solution for some Windows users may be to update their "hosts" file with the following:

<pre>92.246.24.225 freedb.freedb.org</pre>

== External links ==
