OK, I managed to create playlists from cue files under 'artists'. Pity that I can't do this by using my music folder instead because that how my music is organised and I'm not going to systematically retag my 87,000 tracks. Yes, I know my tagging should have been better in the first place, but c'est la guerre. Maybe one day LMS will allow this (Michael H can you hear me? I doubt it as this doesn't seem to be high priority). chopinhauer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32453 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111709 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Creating playlists from cue files in LMS 7.9.2
OK, thanks for that info. It's true I browse exclusively by folder (my music folder being where everything is kept with myriad sub-folders). I have 87,000+ tracks and this works welll for me. When I get a chance I will browse by artist or album and give it a try tomorrow (Sydney time) and get back to you. It isn't really essential to me, as I only occasionally create playlists, perferring in the norm simply to play whole albums. But I'd like to experiment a bit with mixing it up so if I have to go the album/artist route for this purpose that's OK with me. I read somewhere on hydrogenaudio that my issue has something to do with .m3u file capacities. chopinhauer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32453 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111709 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Creating playlists from cue files in LMS 7.9.2
Unfortunately, it may work for you but I can't get it to work for me. When creating playlists from cue files, I only add the whole album and not the individual track every time. I even tried this in foobar and exactly the same thing happened so I must be doing something wrong. In both LMS and Foobar when I select out the tracks and save as .m3u file the actual playlist is simply each whole album for every track saved (i.e. hours and hours long). So perhaps if you could walk me through how you do it step by step, either in foobar or, preferably, LMS? I'd greatly appreciate it. FYI, I'm pretty au fait with cue files, LMS and foobar so not a complete newbie (indeed been a member of this forum for over 10 years) but I don't do any command line stuff or anything that involves text editing (other than changing file names and tags etc). chopinhauer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32453 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111709 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Creating playlists from cue files in LMS 7.9.2
As said above. I am using embedded CUE sheets within the big flac file. Also the picture is embedded. I know about the concept you are using, but had problems when I started many years ago. Embedded CUE sheets do fully integrate in LMS. (It's a great feature!!)

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Creating playlists from cue files in LMS 7.9.2
The cue sheets are kept in the same folder as the large flac file. So the folder contains 3 things; 1. The flac file, say 300mb; 2. the cue sheet (tiny file size) and 3. a jpg, with the album cover. Using the web gui on my computer, with dual panes, the left showing the folder, the right showing the playlist, whenever I add a single track to the playlist it shows up as the single track name, but the length of the track is the whole album. So my playlist consists of different single track names, but are each actually the whole album. chopinhauer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32453 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111709 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Creating playlists from cue files in LMS 7.9.2
I'm pretty new to and inexpert in creating playlists. I can manage it pretty well in LMS 7.9.2 from albums with each track in an individual Flac or APE files. When I try, however, to add an individual track from an album constituted by a single large Flac or APE file plus a cue sheet I end up adding the whole album instead of the particular track. Is there any way to add single tracks from albums linked to cue files or do I have to split the large Flac/Ape file first with a program like Cue Splitter.
