iTunes4 and re-ripping to AAC
Authored by: Frederico on May 05, '03 10:09:47PM

This must only work if the album was originally ripped on the same machine (perhaps then only when the original prefs or xml file is present), as I just tested this and did not get the same results.

Most of my music is ripped from my main workstation, but is stored and played remotely on my server. Neither placing the original CD in my workstation or directly in my server netted these would-be nifty results.

Perhaps it has something to do with where and how and if you use CDDB?

I think I'll try ripping in a new CD once as MP3, and then as AAC, both on the master server, and see what happens. I'd sure like to figure out a way to make this work; 10GBs of CD-ripped MP3s will be tedious enough to replace as it is, without also resetting genres, sub-genres, comments, playlist inclusions, et al.
