[SOLVED] cue files

[tushma]

I have raspberry pi connected to my integrated amp, controling from laptop HP PC via Volumino local, with 16/44 flac files stored on popcorn hour C-200 HDD as SMB NAS. Some files are only album cue files, and I cant get them splited into tracks in Volumino GUI. On popcorn hour music player and Raspbmc music library while pressing cue file, it splits into full album tracks. On Runeaudio is the same issue as on Volumino. Does someone have same problem as I? Thnx in advance!

Hi tushma,
.cue files are supported by MPD since 0.17 version. You can manually test it following these instructions:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mu ... #Cue_Files
But we choose to not display them in the UI, filtering the MPD response during the parsing.
We could change this behaviour in the future, introducing an option to display them.

In the meanwhile, let me suggest you a workaround for your problem. If you are a PC user, there's a wonderful and free tool called which allows you to split the single FLAC file into multiple tracks based on the info contained in the CUE file, and everything is full automated. I use it as I prefer to have a separate file for each track instead of a single file for the whole album.

I understand correctly, that in the future plan to support cue files? If yes, what about when you can wait? Large collection of music and cut large ape and flac files do not particularly want to.

Medieval cue splitter doesn't seem like a very "audiophile" solution.
From thier webpage - " Known bug: MPC engine can cause a bit of jitter at the beginning/end of tracks
Limitations: MD5 checksum is not calculated for generated FLAC files. "

Once the MPD support cue, why runeaudio not see these files? It would be very convenient.

CUE files are now supported in the RuneUI - they are showed and they can be added to playlist.

Please test it and leave a feedback.

Just tired this. I have lost access to one of my folders in the library I now just get the spinning circle, but access to the other folder seems fine. I have remounted all sources and rescanned the folder neither of these things worked. I will try rebuilding the datatbase.
I cant comment re cue file implemetation as my cue files are in the folder I can no longer access.
