    I just spent a little while messing around with all the options in Musicbee (the ones I could understand anyway) but it seems *really* indepth so I'm gonna have to give this all a watch later!

    What's up with that registry file on your Desktop? You trying to hack computers brah brah?
    On a more serious note, this is a very helpful video for someone who is considering switching music players. The ability to switch how the UI displayed is probably the biggest selling point for me. At a minimum I'm going to keep MusicBee on the back-burner if I ever go through with me switch.

    • @DreQueary
      @DreQueary  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The only scaling option is text size. Go to Edit Preferences -> Layout (1) -> Default Text. This changes the fontsize for the entire app. You can set the font and size. Theres also an option to change size of scrollbars.

    Hello, thank you for this, I am totally lost! My iTunes overnight decided there were corrupted files on my computer (?) and MB was recommended as a replacement for iTunes. It did find some of my iTunes files but it is a mess. In just a few days I have been chasing my tail trying to organise but each time I open the app I find most of what I thought i corrected is showing not to be the case. In particular album covers : the last one entered seems to populate every album I taught i had fixed so I am looking at a lot of work to correct. My key question right now is "ARTWORK" what should be "ticked" and what not....I have "embed picture" as my choice but obviously it is not working! Help....and thanks in advance !! L

    Hi! Thank you for the video series on this program. I'm currently using iTunes on Windows 10. iTunes has been getting glitchy lately. I also don't like certain things about it. Example: I have a lot of songs by George Michael. But for some reason, iTunes has created 2 artist profiles for him. There'll be some songs from an album in one profile, and the remaining songs from the same album in the other profile. I've this occurrence on several artists and I've not been able to figure out how to merge the 2 profiles. ANYWAY, I don't know if you know the answer to this, but at installation, if I choose to use my iTunes files and album art, does MB copy those files? Or does it move them? If I choose not to use my iTunes files at installation, but instead copy the files over and add them manually, will MB locate and add the album art? I'm a little scared frankly, to try this software because I'm not as tech-savvy as I once was.

    • @DreQueary
      @DreQueary  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You're very welcome. And absolutely. In my Download and Install video, this part th-cam.com/video/UUe0pJTrB8M/w-d-xo.html there is an option to import iTunes tracks AND artwork. If you skip this option, you can still do it by going to Menu -> Library -> Import -> Import from iTunes. Or by simply adding your iTunes music folder to monitored folders from MusicBee Library Preferences. From there, once MusicBee finds your tracks, you can use the auto reorganize feature to move all your music to a new location on your system. Optionally, you can just drag all your music into the player and run the reorganize feature. I would suggest using the itunes import method, though, or at least testing the reorg on a few files, so you don't screw things up. MusicBee is pretty easy, though. I have a video on reorganizing in the playlist.

    Can you tell me how I can add artwork to my music correctly.I know how to add it but when I do, it uses the same artwork for all my music in my musicbee library. It's super frustrating because I've gone through each song/album and put the correct artwork but they all eventually end up as the same artwork.

    • @DreQueary
      @DreQueary  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      To do it manually, select a song or a group of songs, right click and edit track info. Then you drag artwork into the artwork box. Make sure artwork is ticked and save. Any artwork you don't want, remove it from the artwork tab.
