Well, rdimport worked fine for me for a bunch of mp3 files. However, I have another 450+ .ogg files. Unfortunately, the filenames are all numbers, like 10005-03, 10005-18, 10015-08, 10015-10, etc. I can open these in MediaPlayer, Audacity, etc. and see the metadata with name and artist, etc. but the metadata does not import into Rivendell like it did with the mp3 files.

I am using the following command:

rdimport --verbose --segue-level=-10 MUSIC *.ogg 2>> errorlog.txt

That command worked fine with the mp3 files, inputting the title, artist, and other info. With the ogg files, it puts "Imported from 10005-03.ogg" as the cart title and no other info.

I've never messed with ogg files before. I must be missing something.

Thanks for any help.

Michael

Aha, forgot about command line tools.

Michael,

rdimport(1) is your friend.

    man rdimport

to get started.

In my feeble memory, I seem to recall there was a way to bulk add audio
files. I have a couple hundred songs to import into Rivendell and adding
one at a time will take forever. Any way to speed it up?

Thanks,
Michael
