zen help, please
« on: February 18, 2004, 11:35:30 am »

So, got the burning problem out of the way...thanks.  Now just a teeny question...I have only used Creative Mediasource to sync my zen and library, how does this work in MC?  I can't seem to find a pointer or button or even a help page to show me how to do this.  Have a 60 GB Zen, and a Huge library...and being a music nut, I like to take it all with me when I travel.  Any and all help is more than appreciated ? ?

When you have your zen plugged in, Right click the Zen in the tree and select Synch...

Let us know what you think of it compared to MediaSource... I was never able to get the synch in MC to work as fast.

Thanks...should have known that when all else fails right click!   Arrgh!!  But it worked and that's what I wanted.  It's slower than using creative mediasource, and I miss being able to have the two libraries side by side to check for errors  and omissions and I really, really miss being able to play the files right from my zen (maybe this could be incorporated in the next build?), but all in all...I like this program.  I can organize, burn, listen to my tunes and get on with organizing my photo's  which I turn into digital albums for family members (I use Power Producer which I really like...again because it is easy to use and has everything in one package).  Thanks  again for all the help! 8)

Ya, Using MC to play back Nomad files would be amazing... I have asked for that before and well.....

I am also glad that you find this slower then MS, At least I know it's not my Computer.
Well there is a new plugin Build tonight, Maybe that will address the speed issues...


Hey Steve, Any chance of being able to play Nomad files through MC??

In regards to speed, please try the newest plugin (version 9.0.34), speed should improve. In regards to playback within MC, not at this time. Sorry.
