music view on a Mac

[calloway]

simon....i did try the wav24 and it does seem to be better...i am having a problem with the album and track #'s that i see in Elyric with Minim. Elyric is showing 2 -3 or even 4 of the same albums in all areas..'artists'''genres..etc with 3 duplicates of the tracks within each album..this is really a pain. i hate to delete all my music and start over again with the ripping ...i tried to look up my music in the 'downloads' but it is almost impossible to see where the problem is.ANY SUGGESTIONS..?i have deleted EMM from my computer so i only have Minimserver on it. by the way ..the Minim icon still vanishes when i turn my computer off in spite of doing what you suggested..dave..help me fix this and i will send another nice donation. i really do like your program but all the duplication is a mess...thanks..dave

I'm not familiar with K2 or SHM, but I'm glad this has solved the problem.

It would let you use your computer to browse your library and select music to play through your audio system.

If you're using Mac OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, you can leave MinimServer running when you shut down the computer and select the "Reopen windows when logging back in" option from the shutdown pop-up. When you restart the computer, MinimServer will be restarted automatically.

Quote:.sorry about so many questions..i love the program and i want to learn how to best avail myself of all that it has to offer. i have a friend that will be downloading it either saturday or sunday this week.by the way..i like to sound of the music on Minim better than EMM...

I'm not sure why the sound would be better. Some people have found the sound is better when they set the 'transcode' property to 'wav' or 'wav24'. Have you done this, or is the 'transcode' property field blank?
