speed and new albums

[jukejohn]

because i have a large collection [aprox 600gb] startup is slow but over come that im using
a 12volt relay and system  hibinates via power button
however when i go to music files setting it takes a few minuts to display my library and bgm
as i like to change my bgm to different folders now and again so this does bug me
also is a new albums added to this jukebox possible someway it would do this maybe
by the system time/date added  and album of the week/day via flash thingy

so speed please
new albums added
album of the week/day

such easy requests only take you five mins

'startup is slow but over come that im using a 12volt relay and system  hibinates via power button'

That's a great shout John. My vaio has that setup from factory settings so I kinda took that for granted it never occurred to me that others weren't doing it?
But I would say the pc as a whole runs better from a fresh restart sometimes..
Also maybe upping your ram might help you with loading times???

As for the new albums etc , I'm not sure it's really doable without some sort of formula that would drop the older tracks/albums from the 'new' genre automatically , and where would they go? You would have to manually sort them into genres the same as you've done with the rest of your music.
The only possible way i could see it working would be to duplicate new tracks/albums into their eventual genres and the 'new' genre and then automatically delete out the new genre every so often???

hi dj
its not a ram issue tried that its just the load that it struggles with
and the hibernation works a treat its loaded up in about 1o/15 seconds
and will restart the system now and again just for good measure

im sure steve and bry can handle one or two of these requests of my
wish list dude we got to keep them  awake from time to time 

im still redoing my library structure with subfolders but its worth it
found it a lot better

Yh I agree I think that was a great update. Really added to what can be done with
I would certainly suggest that home users use the hibernation if they have large libraries.
I've been a bit busy moving house recently but I'm nearly all setup now so hopefully il be able to share my new genre images with everyone soon! Not yet though I still haven't even got my juke on the wall yet , first things first.
