Hi-
I'm new to RD and new to this list.  I've been trying to run RDImport for
the last 4 days and consistently get the "invalid group specified" error.
I've entered the command in countless variations.  The base line command
I'm using is as follows:

rdimport %t%a%l MUSIC /home/rd/Desktop/musichold/*.mp3

As it's written, I'm trying to import all mp3 files from a folder on the
desktop labeled musichold and place them in the MUSIC group with the title,
artist and album metadata.

The only time I have received a different result is when I entered the
following line:

rdimport --metadata-pattern='%t_%a_%l' MUSIC
/home/rd/Desktop/musichold/*.mp3

This command gave me the following error:  Unable to open
"/home/rd/Desktop/musichold/*.mp3", skipping...  When I tried to repeat
this, I get absolutely no reaction from the terminal.  No error, no new
line, no nothing.

As I'm new to Linux CentOS as well, I will say the Terminal opens with
[rd@localhost ~]$ already in the window.  I'm assuming this is supposed to
be there.

Other info that may be helpful to my case:
The music is being pulled off of a Windows machine via smb.  I have tried
both importing via the smb path as well as copying and pasting onto the
desktop.  Additionally the files have a '~4' within the name due to the
previous automation system.  The 4 being a variable number between
different files.  This is in the title before the file extension
(obviously).

I'm greatful for any help offered.  I've perused the google group as well
as any related help pages and so far, no solution.  Thanks!
