Hi there - shouldn't SlimServer rescan every time it detects a change in the designated music folder? Seems a bit old hat having to tell it you have ripped some new files!
In fact having just got to grips with EAC settings (approx. 2 weeks study and trial and error and now I have to rip my first 20 CD's again!) SlimServer (no probs - but a bit passive - see comment above) Lossless Compression (now there's enough reading on the Internet for a lifetimes study!) Tags (should I use iTunes, should I just browse folders) oh dear, tags don't appear in browse folders unless you rescan in SlimServer and then theres FLAC compression options (OMG more techy stuff!) - maybe I should get out more....;-) But really - isn't this ripping lark a bit arcane for 2005!!! I mean yes the sound from my Meridian system fed via Squeezebox 2 is well worth the effort - but I have 20 years playing in IT - what on earth do 'normal' folk do...:-) I know lots of folk out there absolutely love user supported and developed software and I have to say I really appreciate the whole Slim Devices ethos - but what I wouldnt pay for good old simple to use and set-up iTunes - but with built-in pre-configured EAC error correction and drive awareness, automatic FLAC conversion and intelligent tagging! Now the Squeezebox 2 thats a different story - it just sits there and works beautifully and I am sure it is totally oblivious to all the propeller head stuff required just to get its files ready for delivery :-) -- Timbo _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
