Bug viewing CD's in Media Library?
« on: June 10, 2002, 07:40:46 pm »

When I click on Media Library or any of the predefined schemes (except CD and DVD media), I don't see any of the tracks from CD media I've played.  I only see CD tracks if I click on CD and DVD Media.  Aren't CD's media?

If this isn't a bug, then there should be a configration option to include the CD database.  It would also be nice to have a toggle button for the Toolbar that would include both databases without having to use ~d=mc in the search.  

Also, using ~d=mc in Album scheme search doesn't give the correct results unless you use it in conjuction with the location= keyword.

This probably isn't a bug but, when you click on Media Library you get a search box to use.  But it isn't available when you click on one of the scheme's.  I think it should be there also!  Otherwise, how you easily perform a search on your CD tracks?

If you want CD tracks to list in your main database, just import the CDA files.  Everything should work like you want then.

Take care.

Thanks Matt, but, how do you import cda files?  I've tried importing, pointing it to my CD drive but it doesn't import anything and under the Advanced option I don't see a CDA file type!  So how do you import CD's?

Try Rip CD.  One of the buttons on the top of the program.  More information is under Help.

Geez, it looks like you really can't anymore. (sorry) We'll figure this out by the next version.

Until then, you'll have to use the ~d stuff...

Take care.

There are probably multiple way to do this, but the one I know:

1] put the cd in
2] open an Explorer windows and open the cd drive
3] you will see the list of cda files
4] select all file, right click
5] If you have the integration with explorer on, you will see a Media Jukebox entry, and there is also a second level menu for Import

you are done

Oh, maybe that'll work.  Didn't try drag-n-drop / shell extensions.

Thanks Next Page
