Auto Gettng Cover Art while ripping CDs
« on: July 23, 2002, 11:50:35 pm »

Hi,

I am in the middle of ripping my entire CD collection and I have found it extrenely annoying that after the CD is ripped and encoded, it asks me if I wanna use standard or loose method for getting cover art every single time. Can't it just remember my preference and do it automatically and eject CD when ir is done? I would also like some audible feedback as to when it is done - is there an option somewhere for that ?

thanks,
Osho

This has been requested many, many times. Could we have it, please? I always use Standard and then go and find it myself if MJ can't. Loose seems to be too loose for its own good.

The next build will eliminate the question and just download an image.  If you don't like it, you can try again.

Well, Why Not Allow It To Find All The ClipArt On Loose, And Also If You Have The Paid version Of Slide Show. Allow It To Find Clip Art Also.

If More Than One Picture Exists Then Allow The User To Select The Clip Art.

My only complaint is that when you download the art, MJ seems to just go ahead and save the picture, instead of asking me whether I want to keep it or not. Then I have to go looking for it and delete it manually. I understand JimH correctly, that problem will eliminated in the next build.

I am glad to hear that a future version will fix this problem.

A Good user interface (IMHO) would be.

[] Get Cover Art after ripping CD
   [] Use Standard
   [] Use Loose
           (Only one of the above 2 can be selected, of course).
   [] Ask user if multiple matches are found.
   [] Do not ask user if multiple matches are found.
          [] Only download the best match.
          [] Download all matches/clip arts.
   [] Play this sound after CD ripping is complete (when disk is ejected). (This option can have a browse button to select a wave file or some other tone).

thanks,
Osho

The play a sound ...is in the wish list
Just go there and vote for it.
And YES i would like very much to have it.

Concerning 'get art sleeve',the results are so ....well..freak out that you are better to use google and put pictures in a folder.After that put it in songs

MJ connect to Best Buy and Amazon to get sleeves.So you cannot get more than what they have
JimH said that a connection to Emusic is on project for people on Emusic
The more sites MJ will connect to to get sleeves,the more time it will take.
They may make a connection to AMG ,i do think we will get more resuls
There is a site with loads of sleeves,where you can uoload sleeves.Sorry but i just cannot remember his name right now

Thanks JimH. Been wanting that for a long time. I look forward to the next build.
