Hello,

I'm still on a steep learning curve setting up and getting to know Rivendell.

I'm trying to import and convert to wav mp3 files from a removable drive via usb. The drive is called 'Elements' the main music folder is called 'MUSIC'. Within the 'MUSIC' folder are many sub folders.

I've tried to import in terminal following these instructions http://rivendell.tryphon.org/wiki/Using_rdimport_to_import_mp3_files

I get a reply. "Can't open Elements, skipped. Can't open MUSIC skipped. Can't open (name of sub folder). skipped. Can't open *.mp3. I thought I'd place the files as cuts in carts that represented the folder it came from on the removable drive 'Elements'.

I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me the string of instructions I need to import files from Elements/MUSIC/subfoldername.

Also. As I don't want the files on the removable drive deleted I need to be sure. Amongst the text that 'terminal' presents it does say that the delete function is off, so I guess that the original files are safe.

Perhaps I need to copy the files from the removable drive onto the main hard drive and import from there.

Many thanks,
Owen Dawe.
