    Network files in File converter file selector

    So i've got all my CDs ripped to FLAC and stored on a NAS device. I want to rip them all to OGG. If I go to the File Selector I can only see my local drives, nothing on my network. Searching I found a thread suggesting the best thing was to map the network drive to a local drive letter. Anything changed since then ?

    Also, if I set up and convert my entire collection, next time I run it is db smart enough to recognise existing files and leave them alone ? I'd like to be able to run this every now and then and just have it update/convert new files in my collection.

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    The only way is still to map the NAS to a local drive letter, yes.

    No, dMC converts all files of the types it is told to convert. Now, when you start converting, it will ask if you want to replace existing files. If you click "no to all" it will only convert files that will not replace pre-existing files that will have the same ending name.

      Hmmm, well I get the window asking me if I want to overwrite files and shows a list of them but don't see the "no to all", I just get "cancel" or "yes". I'm converting right now so I can't check the version, I think it's R11.5 - well that's the file in my downloaded folder.

        No to all was a Power Pack feature.
