Hi

 

I’m planning to rip some 600 CDs into uncompressed WAV format for use with Slimerver, Squeezebox, Telcanto, and a high-fidelity music system.

 

If I rip them manually in iTunes, then at least the Artist, Track, genre tagging info is stored in the itunes database – which I can point SlimServer to.

 

However, I’d like to outsource the ripping to CDLabs, ShrinkDigital or similar, and they can’t return an itunes library to me. My options appear to be getting the files returned with appropriate naming/directory-structure convention. Has anybody else tried this, and any tips on how best to deal with compilations, soundtracks, classical etc? For example, compilations usually have the CD Artist ‘various’, but individual tracks to have the correct artist info.

 

I played with MusicMatch, adding some tags (2.3 I think) to the WAV files, but this seemed to confuse Slimserver (I guess WAVs & Tag’s don’t mix)?

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

 

One other question – is SlimServer UPnP compliant, or will it be?

 

Tks

Natan
