1CHARMEDLIFE  Hi Paul - did that, upped it to 2gb of memory. Still not enough to really handle that many songs:) Doesn't stop it from being *great* software!

Thanks!

1CHARMEDLIFE  This is a great tool for managing large collections and their associated metadata. We have over 26,000 songs in our library and this did a great job allowing us to manage the tags.

The only drawback I've had with it is that it seems to embed multiple versions of album artwork with the files. It would also be really helpful to be able to tell the software to *not* fetch artwork under a certain size. (It stinks to have an awesome interface up on a big flat screen, and it's scaling 112x112 images up to fill a 50" screen... and weeding those all out by hand takes forever).

End to end though, this a great software and I highly recommend buying it if you have a large collection to manage.

(One other note, with really large collections, you have to process them in chunks unless you have tons of RAM. We have 4gb on the machine we used for this, and we could still only process around 10,000 songs in one batch... )

PAUL TAYLOR  Hi, thanks for the review. Wrt to batch updating if you have plenty of physical memory you can change the memory allocation as described in the help manual in order to process the files. By default is Jaikoz is only allocated 400mb which can limit how many files can be processed but you can increase this.

I am looking at a number of ways of reducing memory usage.

LADYSHIPS  RE: multiple album art & filesize of images fetchedâ

Did you set your album art preferences (Preferences » Local Correct » Artwork Correct)? You can designate â1â as the maximum number of images to add automatically to a file, & specify the max size of images to be added from MusicBrainz...

...or are you describing a bug that ignores whatever you set in that preference tab...?
