Importing Playlists from WMP9
« on: August 15, 2003, 08:36:13 am »

Hi all

I have been moving back & forth between MC9 and WMP9 as my main playback tool.
I keep my files in wma lossless format.

I have now decided to settle on MC9 for good - Mario & Dan's new musiclobby was the decider for me.

I can open playlists created in WMP9 in MC9 and they play fine. Yet the cover-art does not display when I do this.
The file naming for the .wma files changes slightly:
M:\music\myplaylists\..\[artist]\[album]\[track name]

I have checked and the album as listed in the MC9 library has cover art and displays it when highlighted, but not when playing through the opened list (wmp9 playlist opened from the file|open media file menu).

Any ideas, help or work around would be most appreciated.

Thank you

Just saw a post on the MJ8 forum which I applied to my issue on MC9.
On the advice of XEN-UNO, I save to M3U and do a search & replace to get the full path and hey presto it worked and the cover-art is showing fine.

Thanks XEN-UNO.

Glad it worked for you, key...

No program is an island. I must use about a half dozen programs...all for getting high quality material into MC.

EAC for ripping & most encoding
WavGain for RG on wav's created from albums and DVD sources
DVD Decryptor for audio/video extraction
BeSweet for AC3 to wav conversion, channel merging (6 chan to stereo), and RG'ing
Oggenc.exe when only the highest quality in a small file size will do...:)
NotePad for text edits...and manually changing data values in a wav (so called hand tuning)
