Listened to that TFF yesterday, first listen sounds quite good! Assuming you do a "look for new" and not a "wipe and rescan", and are looking in LMS, are you looking for the first entry in album artist-> new music? or album artist->tears for fears? What could happen is when you rip, the meta data for the CD is not read/found by the ripping software, and the files are created as unknown artist or unknown album. Look under album artist->unknown. With TFF it isn't a problem, but "the" can be involved - "Flaming Lips" and "The Flaming Lips" but LMS is usually setup to ignore "the" (settings->my music-> articles to ignore...) Are you using a tagging software after your rip, and before LMS? This can be used to fix your tags. I use media monkey (not sure I would recommend it) but allot of people here use foobar2000 and mp3tag. Finally, out of desperation, remove the CD from the HDD, rescan, and note the total number of tracks via LMS (settings_>information-Library statistics), add the CD, rescan, then check the number of tracks again. If it increases...its in there somewhere :) Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Redrum's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115680
