Here we go
First 2 duplicate checkers you can have a look to
-mp3check-very primitive
-mp3Match much more friendly
Another nice program:
-EncSpot--www.querillasoft.com/encspot
This program tell you the quality of the encoding process by finding wich encoder used.And tell you if a song is complete or no.
Concerning programs checking mp3 for problems,i know only 3.
-The Ashamppo one,a VERY BIG S--T.I use many Ashampoo programs and i am very happy with it.But this one is a total disaster.
-Mp3Utiliy--www.geocites/mp3utility
-Mp3Test--www.maf-soft.de
I understand better the results with Mp3Test.But i have a problem with they site[in german,so for you not a problem] and an error 'zu wenig arbeit sspeiche'.Of cause i as well do not understand.
Mp3Utility gives less easy to understand results to 'idiot average computer user'[to make short,MYSELF].
As a rule none of this 2 programs work 100% fine if you put thousands MP3 to check at once and can be very very sloowwww the more they work.
To tell you what i dream about,let me take an exemple.
I have all the Sonic Youth records.But all in lp vinyl,not in cd,include the last one.
I would like to have it on my computer.
I use P2P programs.
After a while,i have number x Sonic Youth songs in Imesh folder,and in Audiogalaxy folder,and the same in SoulSeek,Kazza,,Filetopia,Quarex and more folders.
I cannot put all this songs in the same folder on my hard drive.The new one will replace the old one and so on,and i may get at the end a 96 kps -95% defect in my folder.
With Media Jukebox pluging,i would be able to do like it:
seach music=Sonic Youth
send to play list 'checking duplicates'
And i check using your program.
I send the duplicates[i mean ALL the songs the same,not only songs |PLS|1,|PLS|2.. to playlist 'check for problems'
with one of your other pluging,i ckeck for problems.
According to the resuls and the number of times i have the song,i delete the bad ones,listen to some to have an idea.
AND NOW I AM HAPPY!!!!!!!!!
The top would be to have another pluging like EncSpot to check encoder quality and incompletes songs.
You delete incompletes,the ones encoded with a bad encoder,and you keep the good ones.
After this,you can put songs in artist\album folder,check for songs you still need to get.
And you start again with Giant Sand ,Dream Syndicate,Green on Reed,Long Ryders ...songs
