RE: [OT} Rated songs lost as well

Hi Ian and others, I installed Media Monkey free edition on my DC (because it's so under-utilised) and let it scan all of the mp3 files and build its database. I'm actually quite impressed and I think I've unconsciously decided that it will be my new jukebox player, displacing WMP. It has an

RE: [OT} Rated songs lost as well

Ken, in future I will consider making everything virtual where reasonably possible. I didn’t want to waste a complete Windows OS just to be a host, but as I said, the stripped down Win2008 was too hard to drive and I didn’t have time to experiment with Linux Virtual Box. So the easy decision

I would like to thank the academy for my nomination. I'm so honoured that I'm using Times New Roman to create the impression of a formal occasion. I'd like to use a 16pt font with elegant curls on it like a wedding invitation, but it probably won't display in most email readers. However, I

RE: [OT} Rated songs lost as well

Ben, Ian, It’s a shame that WMP doesn’t put the ratings in the ID3 tags. I wonder if it puts them in the metadata of WMA files. All of my jukebox files are mp3 files with nicely managed ID3 tags, so I had a look inside one of my 5-star songs and there is no ratings frame (or ‘popularity’

RE: [OT} Rated songs lost as well

Your domain level has nothing to do with your version of Windows Media Player. I suppose you could say that the OS you are running WMP on is the issue. But most organisations have their Domain Controllers and client machines separate, and upgrading the domain (i.e. replacing the DCs) has no
