Will not transfer/HELP!!
« on: December 21, 2019, 11:46:57 pm »
Hello,
Not sure where this goes. Took me a half an hour to get here. I had to get a new hard drive. I did get all my files in the right place. When I try to transfer files from JRiver to my Pono, Sony NW A45 or Astell & Kern I get this message. No rights or wrong file type. For some reason they are ripping into "ape" files. Most of my files are flac or mp3 or at least something I recognize. I am ripping CD's into the JRiver program. Before the hard drive change the music would automatically go from iTunes to JRiver and that will not work either. Really not sure what "wrong file type" means. I read in the help that ape id an accepted file type?? OH yes I am using 22 for Windows. Please Help!! To be exact the message is "insufficient rights or unsupported file type".

You can change the default encoder in MC Settings.  Settings has a search window.  FLAC would be a good choice.

You can convert APE files to FLAC.  Select a few and right click.

MC's Options (Tools > Options) > File Encoding > Audio: File Conversion is where you can set conversion settings.

Hi Awesome,
I want to thank you for stepping up. I am still not following the path. I went to Tools>options>encoding?? Can't find file encoding>can't find "AudioFile Conversion"?
I tried just encoding but it did not work. Sorry I am so slow.

I thought I had it changed to Flac. I deleted the CD I ripped and ripped it again. It was ripping in cda and not ape. I thought I had it fixed. Nope!! As soo as the CD stopped riping the changed from cda to ape and I still had the same problems. "insufficient rights or unsupported file type" I am sure the problem is FILE TYPE!!

All these issues are caused because you don't have the settings from your previous installation.

Did you happen to recover a MC22 Library Backup from your old drive? Because if you did you could just Restore that, with settings, and MC would work the way it used to for you.

Read the Wiki article I linked to, or have the Geek Squad read it. Otherwise they will have to do all the work again!
