MC 16, How to display my covers, when on external disc?

<< < (2/2)

indieke:
The reason is simple. I take my portable on holiday, where I stock the music I like the most. On the external drive is all my music.....

MrC:
Probably then you want to customize your views so that you can filter out drives you don't want to use.  You might, for instance, add Location as the first Category in a panes or categories view, and then select a particular drive for use.  Or you might use Search or Search Wizard to select only certain locations or exclude certain locations.

indieke:
Thanks for your comments. But to filter that I not understand well.... :-[

I think I rebuild from scatch, maybe upgrade to version 19, bt problem is I not use JRiver so much for the moment, but my oppo 93.  But would like to do everything with the tablet now....

indieke:
I would appreciate a quick solution.  In the configuration, I only put the external disc.  But when I looked at my library, still I had double files, on the common cd's.

Now I would like to know this :

Can I delete  from the library all the files from the internal disc, without exactly deleting them there.

If I do a new scan, how to arrange it is really a scan from scratch and previous items will not be displayed? Everything works fine, just cannot get rid of these double files!

MrC:
In Tools > Import > Configure Auto Import, remove the paths you do not want imported.

In the Audio > Files view, sort the files by the Filename column.  This will sort them such that each drive's paths are grouped together.  You can select all the files from the group(s) of paths you don't want, and hit Delete.  This will remove the entries from MC.

Alternatively, you can use the Search Wizard (upper right search box, click the downward facing triangle).  Use Filename (path) as the basis for filtering.  Enter the drive letter and path prefix necessary to select only those files you want to delete.  So your filter will something like:

   Filename (path) starts with Z:\Music\paths\to\remove

Then you'll have only those paths shown in MC, and you can select all and Delete.
