If a song is ready/mixable, but hasn't been validated yet, that means MusicIP is using the metadata to identify the track. So a track which is tagged as "Jumping Jack Flash" by "The Rolling Stones" will get associated with the most common version of that track. However, the track may be mistagged, or there may be alternate versions of this track. During validation, we can confirm the metadata, and update the acoustics to be more precise. So, the upshot should generally be better mixes after validation, but if your metadata is reasonably clean, things should work fine without the validation. Validation always starts with the unmixable songs first, so you can try to get complete coverage of your collection before the more detailed cleanup process starts - this is the reason why it starts slow and then speeds up. -- whicken ------------------------------------------------------------------------ whicken's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3991 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48270 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
