Hi davep; I knew about the rescan but for some reason every time I tried to rescan SqueezeCentre would lock up tight. The only way I could rescan while I was still using media 11 was doing a clean reload of Squeezecentre. Luckly that problem disappeared after I started using dBpoweramp so now

Not sure if I'm misunderstanding your actions in my speedreading, but you do understand that you have to initiate a rescan of the music folder in SqueezeCenter to get it to see new tracks which you have added. This step can be automated - which is what I do, setting it to do a full rescan at

I deleted a cd this morning and reripped it, it came up fine but when I tried it again this afternoon it doesn't seem to work for some reason. The only differents between this morning and this afternoon was my internet link was down when I did it. And all the cd's that Squeezebox have found seem

It just struck me, are there any better systems around for ripping music to your computer. I'm not a Media 11 fan boy and only used it because it came free with XP. If I have to start over again with all my cd's what program would you recommend to go with Sqeezebox? -- kcdownunder

I want to thank all of you for our very kind assistance! The Story so far: I spent a couple of hours last night deleting and re-ripping five of my cd's in Media 11, restarting my computer after each rip, hoping that SqueezeCentre would find them. No luck. After sleeping on it I found Davep's

Just to keep all the kind people here on the Forum posted; I,ve had to do a complete delete of first SqueezeCentre and then every cd in media 11. I then started re-ripping all my cd's in dBpoweramp in FLAC ( thanks davep and Peter, 58 cd's and counting). I then re-instaled SqueezeCentre and

Can you explain how you got your music onto the hard drive? Did you rip in Media Player 11 with the copy protect option turned on, or buy from an online store? davep -- davep davep's Profile:

Not being a Media Player user I cannot check, but according to the google results I got there is such an option and I suspect, being M$, it is turned on by default. If this is the case then you have something of a problem as the Squeezebox, along with almost all other media players, is not

I don't think that CP is on by default - it certainly wasn't on my MP11. Under the Now Playing tab, use the arrow to get to more options and then look at the Rip Music tab...that's where the CP option lives. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it

I've just checked it and the CP isn't on. I've also inabled share media files for Media 11. The strange thing is that Squeezebox found about ten CDs but not the other couple of hundred. Has nobody else had this problem? -- kcdownunder

I believe that earlier versions of the media player did have the copy protection option turned on by default. So if they were ripped with an earlier version this is most likely the problem. As was mentioned if you re-rip one of the CDs that can't be found by SqueezeCenter and it then can find it
