OK, but on what kind of level. If it can be done seamless without causing my Music to stop or stopping the Browse function, then maybe worth a look. Or just scan for new music, as simple as opening Setting and Clicking Scan for new Music. Total Clear and ReScan Library, a no thanks from me as my library is huge and I can't use my music for a few hours (it will play what is queued, but I can't browse, modify playlists, or add songs). Of course this might all change with SC 7.3.3 or SC 7.4.X. The future so bright I have to wear shades! I also believe if you switch to Vortexbox that it will add the music right after you rip a CD. Personally, I want to keep control of this. But that's just me and my opinion. Just as easy to schedule it or launch it in Setting. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, Vandersteen Quatro, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: SB3, GFR-700HD, Thiel 2.3, Second Boom Home Office: SB3, NAD C370, two VSM-1 Home Gym: SB3, Parasound Vamp v.3, Thiel PowerPoint 1.2 House Portable: SB3, Audioengine A5 Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Expedition: SB3, ToughBook ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=64398 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
