stacks, im still confuced
« on: March 27, 2010, 06:41:20 am »

i do have a bunch of ape files from which i want to have a copy in wav to playback in an other program, but still have them available in mc. so i thought i could use the stack feature for that. i converted a file using the conversion tool, putting the copy inside the same directory as the original and adding it to mc. now how can i stack this file underneath the original? i expected i could just select both files and say: stack, but i can not find that. i also checked the features if i had to enable something, but could not find that either.
im right to think the stack files inherit the tags from the original? including plays?
and when i figured it out, i guess i can make views only showing the stacked files (the wavs)?

somebody has some tips?

thanks

Here's some 'stack' stuff I typed out earlier that you may find useful...
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=55782.0

[stack tag] appears to be 100% internal, read only, and used for managing the handheld cache. If you use that feature, then cached files held in stacks have their [stack tag] filled with HHCache.

I've not a lot of experience with stacking audio, but basics should apply still...

Select two or more file you wish to stack, right click on the file that you wish to be at the top of the stack, and stack the files.
Perhaps, if you have other questions, and you asked them in the linked thread, it might help a little to keep some stack related info in one place?
