File import settings

(1/1)

JamieShanks:
Hi all,

I'm not sure if I'm being dense, but is there somewhere in MC12 I can change the file import settings for manual imports (i.e. when I drag a folder to MC12 to import it)?

The auto-import folders' individual options settings have a list where you can specify which file types should be imported and which not, but there doesn't seem to be a place to set this for "everything else".  I tried setting the external file types setting (i.e. what MC opens) but that made no difference.

Basically, I want to stop MC noticing .cue files as my flacs are tagged already, when it imports both the cues and flacs it doubles everything up.  At the moment I need to go into the folder and select only the flac files to drag.

Thanks and cheers,
Jamie

Try looking under tools > options > Library & folders > Select the file path (E:\Rock) > Settings for this folder.  Select what you want to import in that folder (Flac, Ape, MP3 etc.).  I don't see anything for .cue so that may be a bug but give that a try.

JamieShanks:
Thanks tunetyme, I appreciate the suggestion, but it was the folders that aren't already being monitored I was wondering about. 

What I did in the end was tidy up a bit, and stick all the flac files under one heirarchy, so MC can just monitor that (with the auto-import option for CUE files turned off).

Cheers
Jamie
