Corrupt files again...?

Just talk about kJams stuff with each other, describe things you did that worked, talk about your setup, anything that doesn't fit into the other forums!

Corrupt files again...?

Post by way2fst4u »

OK, I know there is no way to "fix" corrupt files with kJams. If I were to re-rip, or re-download a NON-CORRUPT version of said file, can it be replaced and will kJams then recognize it as not corrupt? What is the best way to replace corrupt files then re-add them into kJams?
Thanks!

yes
if you just rip it, and the meta data is exactly the same, then it will replace the one that is there
if you procure it otherwise (outside of kjams) then, in kjams do "reveal in finder", then copy the file name from the old to the new, then replace the old with the new

How do I get it out of the "corrupt files" playlist once it plays and is recognized?
Thanks!

if it plays, you can just manually delete it (select, press delete)

I also have 200+ files that have extra characters in them (CB6+40037, CB6+40038...etc..etc...). I have to do them disc by disc right? If I highlight all that need to be changed, it will change them to the same disc #...?
Thanks!
