In step 1 you tell Toricxs which directories contain the music files you want to clean up.
You have several possibilities to
tell Toricxs which directory or directories contain music files. If you want to add one directory containing many mp3 files then use the ‘Add’ button (2). If you have your mp3 files spread over many sub
directories then use the ‘Scan’ button (3). In both cases a Windows directory-choosing box will appear asking you to select the directory to add/to scan. Select the directory and press ‘Ok’. If your music files are
spread all over the computer or over the network (during a LAN-party!) then take advantage of the Mega Scan (1).
When performing the Mega Scan, you will first be asked what you want
to scan, your own computer (all hard disks and cd rom drives), the network or both. Furthermore you can define if the files to clean up should later be copied or moved to their new location.
Do you want to clean up your own mp3 collection so that it looks good? Choose ‘hd’ and ‘move’.
You wanna get files from your friends over the network? Choose ‘network’ and ‘copy’
You are currently at a LAN-party
and want to clean up your own collection the first time AND you want to get new files from your friends over the network? Choose ‘hds and network’ and ‘copy’. After the scan is completed you can change
the copy state of the dirs of your own collection into move dirs through marking them in the list and choosing ‘Move Files’ from the right-click menu. Alternatively you can choose ‘hds and network’ and ‘ask me
for every directory’, then Toricxs will ask you for every found directory if it is to be copied or to be moved, select ‘copy’ if the dirs is located on a friend’s computer and select ‘move’ if it is located on
your own.
You can Toricxs also make read from multiple cds.
When getting cds from your friend then either copy the contained files to your hard disk and clean them up from there, or add the cd directories in the way like done with hard disk dirs (requires more frequent disk
changing, but you don’t waste time with copying). Toricxs can differ between several cds through checking their serial numbers. You can differ between the cds through the cd description, which can be entered after
adding a cd directory.
During the renaming process Toricxs will request cds when
required. You are displayed the changing need through an acoustic signal. The sound it allowes you to make Toricxs operate in the background, you must restore it merely when necessary.
When having added directories they will be visible in the Move-
or Copy Directory List (5 and 4). You can can administrate the directories over the right-click menu
that opens when you click into the list with the right mouse button. Besides you are shown a screenshot of the menu.
You can use the menu for adding directories, changing the move-
or copy state, remove one or all (move- OR copy-) directories, browse a dir with the Windows-Explorer and you can search the dir list to check if a special dir has already been added. Furthermore you can
click on ‘Info’ to open a window with directory-specific information. In that window you can subsequently change a cd description.
After the adding you don’t have to perform further actions,
press the ‘Next’-button to continue to step 2.
