@Jon Thanks for trying it out :)
I've uploaded a new version which has one new parameter: --max-albums x (example: --max-albums 10) This would get the first 10 albums from the server. But the time you mention still sounds far too long. My environment here has 223 albums and the whole process takes 30 seconds at most. Step 1 is by far the longest. Step 2 depends only on your local computing power and step 3 does the pdf generation, which (at the moment) needs the slimserver to provide the cover art. So there could be some sort of network problem in my code/your system :) If you would be so kind to try it again with 10 or 20 albums? My only Idea at the moment is that you should try to specify the server with its ip address and not some kind of hostname. In my xml file the tool generates cover art like "http://192.168.0.3:9000/music/1688/cover.jpg"; which works perfect for me. If that doesn't fix it, could you please attach a sample xml and fo file to this post? To get the xml/fo file instead of the pdf, simply add "-o xml" and in the next run "-o fo" to the command (before the filename). Limited to 10 albums these files should be quite small (10-30 KB). To summarize, these command lines would generate an xml and fo file for the first 10 albums: "java -jar jsq-export.jar --max-albums 10 -o xml -s 192.168.0.3 output.xml" "java -jar jsq-export.jar --max-albums 10 -o fo -s 192.168.0.3 output.fo" Emissary -- Emissary ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Emissary's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5480 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28457 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
