THANKYOU FOR TRYING MP3DETECTIVE...
-------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION
If you are reading this - you have already installed MP3Detective
1. MP3Detective.exe should be in your programs folder. You can access it
from your Start menu / Programs
2. MP3Detective.exe will run anywhere on your computer but we
recommend you leave it in your programs folder and place a
shortcut to it on your Desktop.
(see instructions below to create shortcuts)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
No longer do you have to remember which folder each song is in,
or need to go searching through folders and subfolders to find what
you want to hear.
A simple but effective program which you keep on your desktop, for
easy access, which allows you to search all your music folders or
drives for MP3 music with specified text within their names.
To search multiple drives - separate each drive with *
and no spaces (except in folder names)
This done automatically for you, though you can type them in manually.
Example: D:\*E:\MP3 folder*G:\Music"
will search 'D:\' and it's folders and subfolders...
and 'E:\MP3 folder' and it's folders and subfolders...
and 'G:\Music' and it's folders and subfolders.
Note: Use browse button to simplify this.
It remembers your music folders for subsequent searches.
Hint: It is a good idea to only list folders that have music as this
will speed up the searches.
Simply click the song title to play it on your default MP3 player.
If more than 1 match is found, you can click the "Play-All" button
and all the songs will be played in the order shown.
You can search for two parts of the name at once to narrow down your
results by using + in between the items searched for.
(Do not put gaps either side of the + unless you want a gap in the search)
Example: qu+bo will find 'Queen - Bohemiem Rapsody'
