Password protection?
« on: January 05, 2003, 02:00:52 am »

Is it possible or could it BE possible to password protect albums or playlists?

I am thinking of Explicit Lyric albums or 'personal' image files that you may not want everyone who uses the juke box to hear/view.

;D

Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more!!!

The "real" security around that is sloppy -- there are at least 1,000,000 other ways to get around a MJ imposed pasword. First eg: use another program.

If you use an NT based Windows, try file security rather!

Most 4-year olds and grandmothers are inconvenienced enough with a simple UI password to delve no further.  :)  I think what some users want, including myself, is a balance between privacy and our own convenience.

For now, the best idea I heard was to use a separate library for the stuff you don't want popping up in your face the second MC9 opens.  :)  But I for one would love to be able to tag such files with a specific genre or checkbox, and then have a global password in MC9 that simply filters those files out of the view when enabled.
