I think you need to add *.mp3, or wav or whatever extension it is ,
after what you have.

Jorge,
Thank you! Sounds like i'll give this a try as well. If you could,
can you paste what that file name looks like for you in RD. I have
this: /home/rivendell-2/rivendell/music_101/
What else am I missing?

You have to make sure that your file name extension matches what
you setup in your dropbox. For example if your file name is
any_file_name.MP3 then your dropbox extension should also be upper
case. I have dropboxes for *.MP3 and *.mp3, *.wma, *.WMA, etc.
However, I have noticed that when I have tried to import files
encoded with MusicMatch, even though the file info says they are
mp3's, Rivendell does not import them, I this case I first do a
batch "convert" to mp3's with audacity.

Wayne,
Thanks for the info. So, I do exactly as you tell me to do
and now I am only able to upload one song at a time. Will not
let me 'select all', etc. Any thoughts?
As for all of the intro markers, etc. we had some guy here
write a script for Prophet-NexGen101 and should work out well
for importing; that is, if we can upload more than 1 song at a
time.

Hi Terry,
The easiest thing to do is setup a drop box. If you log
into rdadmin and
go to edit hosts. You'll find a drop boxes button under
each host that
you have. Simply give it a path, pattern and group to
import then drop
all your songs in that directory.
Depending on what Prophet can give you, you probably won't
get all the
intro markers etc imported with it though. I have had
some success
parsing XML files that my old system provides and then
having a program
manipulate Rivendell's database directly to save some of
the work but its
quite a hacked piece of software (I didn't bother with all the
interfaces/code comments and the like which would have
made it easier to
translate to different XML formats/field names).
Regards,
Wayne
