Author Topic: MC16 during importing "skipping files previously determined to be bad"  (Read 2197 times)

i have 122 files in my library that mc16 does not import.

when i run auto import, it gives me this message, but when i click see more details, i don't get a list of them.

it'd be very helpful if i could see what files it isnt importing, whether its jpgs, mp3s, or what, and find out why it isn't importing them or why they are bad.

any way to view this information? if not, it'd be great to implement in future builds.

That probably won't help, but you can make a Smartlist that shows the skipped files.  Also, there were some changes made to this system just recently, and this should be improved with the next public build.  See this thread for more info.

To make the Smartlist that shows the "Rejected Files" do this:

1. Create a new Smartlist (go to Playlists in the tree, right click and choose Add Smartlist)
2. In the Smartlist dialog, remove (click the X next to) the default [Media Type] = Audio rule.
3. Click the Import/Export button.
4. Paste the following text in the box and click OK: ~d=b
5. Save your changes and enjoy.
