Hey Mike, I had some issues with that as well. I'd recommend that you let some program do the file naming for you. I used a couple including itunes, and some freeware rippers. mythmusic needs this structure:
/artist/album/song1.mp3 I found rippers that called to CDDB are helpful and can sometimes rename your files for you. if your folder structure is off, it might suck. best luck I had was using rippers that put the mp3s in that structure. for one off mp3s, I had to make sure they followed the structure, even if I did not have the whole album. I also had good look with a ID3 tag editor for files that would not name automatically. a google for ID3 editor will turn up a bunch. last thing I throw out, I just found a CD cover image finder that works well, I'd recommend trying to find one of those as well. -EA On 6/4/05, Mike Geisterfer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > Started to add the CD's to MythTV - MythMusic, and realized that the freedb > database entries can be problematic.
