Possibly... between my work and my personal projects, I might be able to
squeeze in a little bit more into my rare spare time... 8-)

Thanks for your note. Not being an access programmer, it did not
immediately occur to me to go straight at the database, bypassing CDJ
(although I did, believe it or not, realize that possibility late yesterday
after I sent out my mail).
I want to build up a coalition of programmers to do this project. Are you
interested in taking on some part?
Tom.

Your application(2) could be done right away without any modification to
CDJ. All the application need to do is to add entries to the Access
database.

Subject: [slinkelist] CDJ and MP3's
I've been thinking about CDJ and MP3's recently. Here's what I think
the CDJ community needs:
1. A slinkx application that will monitor the playback of a playlist
by CDJ, and as each track starts and ends, use Windows sound recorder or
another recorder to record the audio playing into the computer's sound card
as .WAV files, and then use a MP3 encoder such as BLADEENC.EXE to convert
the .wav files to MP3's and at the same time store ID3 information in each
MP3, having at least the album and track names that were supplied by CDJ
during the playback. To make a more complete package, an ID3v2 tag could be
created in the MP3, with CDJ's stored lyrics and image.
2. A slinkx application that will scan an entire hard drive for every
MP3 file and then automatically create audio file albums and tracks in CDJ,
building albums from MP3's having the same album name. Also, images and/or
lyrics in ID3v2 MP3's would be transported over to separate files and linked
into CDJ to display with those tracks.
Application (2) is probably the most generally useful app, because a
user that had an entire disk library ripped into another MP3 program such as
RealJukebox, would be able to use application (2) to directly and
automatically import all of those MP3's into CDJ (assuming they were ID3
tagged when created).
Colby, unfortunately you will need to expand the CDJ automation
interface to CDJ to facilitate application (2) - you will need to have CDJ
commands and responses for adding audio file albums and tracks to albums, as
well as to insert links to image files for particular albums or tracks, and
insert lyrics.
Any thoughts?
