Re: [slim] How do I export an iTunes playlist for use with SC?

This program works well; however, my iTunes tracks are in the format "01 Track Name" while my SB playlists are "01 - Track Name". The only options for rectifying this that I can think of are to manually change each one or do a search/replace for each number 01 through whatever the highest track n

[slim] Wrong bitrate reported for Apple lossless (M4a)?

Hi, Dont quite know where the problem is located, but if I look at an Apple lossless file - either from the Duet controller or the web-application - it is reported with wrong bitrate. For example I see 177kbps but looking at the file from dbpoweramp it is really 900kbps. Why is that? Is that an

You could use the Dynamic Playlist plugin to skip tracks over 7 minutes long, that should do it. Personally I always split the tracks into 2 and cut out the silence. HTH CW -- Chunkywizard *Squeezebox:* Boom x2 (Lounge and Kitchen), Radio *Server:* 7.4.2 for Windows Home Server (HP EX-475 M

Squeezebox Server/Center can't help you with this, it is best done at the point of ripping/encoding the disc. Some rippers will cut out large chunks of silence for you. I tend to just leave them in, so I can listen to the album as intended. There are only about a dozen tracks in my library that h
