I think More Info Is In Order

Did You Install It?

Did It Install?

Whats The Problem?

What Info Do You Need?

Did You Go To Plug-Ins In MJ?

Did You See It?

Did You Click On It?

If you have a Green Elf On A Train Going From New York To L.A. At 62Mph How Long Would It Take The Elf (His Name Is Jack By The Way) To Count All The Apples He Sees On His Trip?

PS: Take In Mind He Has No Calculator

It Requires Your MJ Version To Be Registered.

I downloaded Chartfinder and it installed automagically. So what do I do now to make it review my files, and where is the results displayed.

Thanks

just put the files in "playing Now"

then go to the plug-in

run it in batch or manual

once you go back to MJ, MJ will save the new tags.

Results are on the tabs, and A Pop Up Dialog

if you place the mouse over an option Tool tips will pop up  (the help you may need)

Please pardon my ignorance but I am not following you instructions.
When you say "go to the plugin" where exactly is it that I am suppose to go?  
Doesn't it run from inside MJ?

Phil


I just saw post 5804 and I do not have a "Plugin" option in the tree.  So what does that mean?

Figure it out.  I was trying to install with MJ running.

Thanks

well what version of MJ are you using.

If you do not see "Plug-In's" in the tree then it did not install.

there was a bug in some versions Of MJ9 that would not allow Plug-ins install. if your runing MJ9 make sure it is the current version 9.0.82

>> Figure it out.  I was trying to install with MJ running.
Yes mJ can't be running for a few reasons One it will not see the plug-in untill reboot Of MJ, and if any DLL's are ruuning there will be an error on the install.

Thanks for the assistance.  I like the chart info it provides but I wish it did not use "Best of "Artist Name" as a default when no album found.  I ran it without seeing the setup options and had to clear about 50 of those Album titles.

"If no album found"   Leave Blank

I just don't like the arbitrary "Best of XXXX"

Ouch, I just saw this thread and now see that CF changed the Album Name ... I did not see the checkbox to disable, maybe it should at least be disabled by default.

it only changes the Album name If the album name is blank or has Something Like "Unknown", "No Album Name" etc... in the album name it does not change a valid album name

and it has a setting in the check boxes to apply a blank or unknown album name to "Best Of" etc.. and there is a imput box for the name of the album you wish to change a blank album field too.

Look at the options for "If Album Is Blank Set It To Album Is Blank Rule"

next version does not do this and the user is required to check the box if he wishes this field to be filled if it is blank.

like i said it does not change a valid album name
