Is there a way to transfer my itunes folders from my desktop to my USB storage in order to avoid scan from TinySBS (as you know from my thread I've never had a complete library scan). Is it going to work? How does it work? TinySBS recognizes Itunes library and doesn't need to scan? Do I need to

As I see there is no other way than to reduce sizes from cover files to less than 120 kb. Knowing that I probably used image files larger than 500 kb, thah those were gif, jpg and even BMP, that in some album folders I saved pdf of lyrics and stuff...I reconsidering what to do, I got about 3.000

Thanks Mike but I would like to keep embedded images in my mp3 files cause I like to have album art in my ipod or whatever. To create my mp3 tags I use Tagrename, and I can't do what you say in Mp3tag, which I guess is not a free program. I don t want to be stubborn but I don't know why I think

I had a similar problem at first. I could never finish a complete scan with an attached HDD. What worked for me was having each album folder with only the music files (FLAC, mp3) and just ONE cover.jpg (not much larger than 500x500) per album folder. None of my music files have embedded album
