Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
Is PerfectTunes supposed to listen to the entire library each run? I have a large collection, so it takes days. If it is not supposed to do so, then it seems to me that crashes and irregularities during comparing (post-'listening') corrupts the 'already listened to' list.
(A suggestion would be to store time for last scan, and listen to only newer files. And for file formats with internal checksum, skip more recently changed files with unchanged checksum. Of course with option to force check. And with option to report wrong checksum or corrupted file.)Leave a comment:

Yes, the HDD will be the bottle neck (I have a dev server with 12 real cores, the SSD cannot keepup)Leave a comment:

I have a AMD FX-8150 processor, is there any reason why there only 4 cores used to scan for duplicates ?Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
There will be display sorting and filtering added to DeDup, just as there is in Album Art.
PS your files only need scanning once, for all the PerfectTunes programs, after they have been scanned only changes are re-cataloged.Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
Started testing dedup yesterday. I have my music collection (104 k items (!)) on a WHS server, but chose to do the first test by running dedup from my main desktop pc. Shortly after it started, when it had processed about 200 items the message for duration of the process was 1 day and 13 hours. A while later, when about 10 x as many items had been processed, the message was that it would take 4 days to complete. This put me off completely, at least for the chosen solution, as I could probably find most duplicates manually using mediamonkey in that timeframe... I know I have a lot of duplicates, but unless I can process them intelligently by inclusion of information about the album a 'duplicate' belongs to, there will still be a lot of manual checking prior to implementing the final step of 'deduplication'! Since the user interface is not abundant with selection criteria for the dedup process, i am holding off on actually using this potentially useful tool for now!Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
The main usage of PerfectTunes is automated album art fixing, one click, bang it is done.
PerfectTunes only knows of the album 'Allman Brothers Band-Brothers And Sisters', it does know about different pressings such as MFSL, hence the reason it sees as one album (as that is what it is matching against).Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
I don't understand.
Here is what the folder and file structure looks like.
Allman Brothers Band\1973 - Brothers and Sisters\Allman Brothers Band-Brothers And Sisters- 01-Wasted Words
Allman Brothers Band\1973 - Brothers and Sisters (MFSL)\Allman Brothers Band-Brothers And Sisters (MFSL)-01-Wasted WordsLast edited by Johncan; May 27, 2012, 01:32 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
If you create a new album name, then you will get no art, as the matching is done on album name.Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
What characters so you suggest I use instead of ( )? What is your code not designed to ignore?
Other than that, the beta is working nicely.Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
Albums where you have:
Artist - Album
Artist - Album (xyz)
are not going to be handled correctly, as the album is seen as one.Leave a comment:

Re: PerfectTUNES discussion
Album Art is missing some subfolders in my file structure.
For example:
f\FLAC A-C\Music\Albert King has 8 subfolders containing 8 separate albums in FLAC.
Album art only shows 7 subfolders (7 albums) in the Albert King folder
The Allman Brothers Band folder has 9 subfolders (9 albums) but Album Art only shows 7 subfolders (7 albums).
Please advise.
Allman Brothers Band\1973 - Brothers and Sisters
Allman Brothers Band\1973 - Brothers and Sisters (MFSL)
Album Art appears to ignore the parenthesis and combines all the tracks from the two CDs as one CD. So the artwork for Brothers and Sisters gets combined with the tracks for Brothers and Sisters (MFSL). I want the artwork to be separate for the two different pressings of the CD. I don't see how I can do this yet.
