wav and lossless formats
dinodino - 2-28-2006 at 05:43 PM

I like to see some more import options. wav and some lossless format for audiophiles. winamp support a varios list of formats so it should be easy task to let ejukebox `add new song`find other file beside mp3.

The sollution

thanks

Actually When you playing a wavfile in winamp it shows up in ejukeboxs `now playing`
and you can edit and make album image at the usual way like with mp3 files. Unfortunately only manually.
But to edit song by song like that will be a quite long-term task.

Audiosoft just have to make that an option in `add new songs to ejukebox` so it will look up for varius sound formats
and not only mp3 files.

If winamp can, ejuke can too.

The problem is that it doesn't write the information of other formats to the tags. Meaning that you lose all the information you've edited in non-mp3 files when you rebuild the database. I know that a workaround is to format the filenames of these in a specific way and throw a cover.jpg into the folder. But a better sollution would be if it could permanently write information to tags or a dedicated file. Might be a hassle to program though.

Lossless Ape files with ID3V1 tags work perfectly with EJ
