MeowCDMp3:
English Help File
0- why advertisements ?
Since this software is
free, it is
the way we have chosen to make money with the current software. If you
find not good deals don't buy. Don't click to make us happy, it is
useless for us and for you.
1- The General Menu
You can notice that the
interface lis nearly the same as MeowMultisound. And in fact it is
totally the truth. I removed some colonns and i add a feature to from
Cd.
It was possible to make a kind of all-in-one tool, but since with cd you are using not using a virtual thing, i decided to make two different software, since i could perhap's change them using 2 differents ways. (notice that the help file is nearly the same too :D )

Since the software is in english it should be a little easier for you to understand that for the others. However, if something is missing or if you have a problem you can mail me at : meow at meow-prod dot com
On the picture, just above, you can see the main part of the software
that has the main options to control the software. You should get this
screen if you launch the software, if it si not the case there is
already a problem.
This screen has several subsections:
2-The actions screen
"Add file": with this action you can off course add files.
With the
current options of the current version of the software, you can only
add .cda files ! And the software will work only if all
files are named Track01.cda ... TrackXX.cda and so on...
"Remove files": is an action that allows to remove one or
several files.
These files have to be selected in the list of files in order to remove
them. Use this action if you don't want convert a file, for example if
you made a mistake or if you have changed your mind.
"Convert"
starts the conversion from one format to an other, you must have files
in your file list to get this option valid.
"Clear all" is an option that removes all your files in
your file list.
"Install software" is an action that allows to add a
shortcut on your
desktop to the current location of the software (usefull if you decide
to change the directory of the software). To remove this shortcut, just
erase it like any other file.
To make it easier to
understand, watching this menu is enough if you have selected your
format settings correctly and added some files in the file list.
You can get some of these options if
you right click. (it just more handy)
<--- Look on the left
:D
3-The file list
This list of files has a
drag and
drop support from window's file explorer. The main function of this
file listing is to list the files to convert.
There is a protection against duplicate files (same full path, but not same name !, so be warned that if you have a name twice that the first one will be overwritten).

It gives an option to
edit the name of the ouput file and some other options.
The column "status",
is useles while you have not started a conversion. But during the
conversion, it gives the conversion progress in percent. If a
conversion is done, it is written that it is.
The last column gives
the path (that should not be very usefull since the paths should look
nearly the same)
The software CAN'T handle a third
cd reader
4- Before explaining the format window, let's see two buttons in the screen:
Here is an easy-to-understand menu:
-you can select the ouput directory (if you don't choose one, all files will be written to the root of your hard drive: c:\ usually, but when the software starts it should select the current directory of the software as path).
- you have to select an output format (default is wav)
- the other pannels give the settings for each formats.
To make it easy, this is a summary:
If our default format settings suit your wish:
Add
your files, choose an output directory and press on the
convert "button", that's all.
For the other menus, they are differents for each formats. I don't want
to explain each parameters of each file format. Perhap's will il create
some pages in the question and answer part of my site to explain on
this topic and on the different options of wav, ogg and mp3 files. And
after that you should be able to recognize the options that are in the
software and those that are not.
However i would like to explain how to use a specific menu of the software.

6-The Mp3 pannel tag. (this part is the same as for MeowMultiSound)
It is possible to access
this menu if
you click on "edit tag", in the "Mp3" tab. It is needed to click on
"use tags" in order the use of the related datas is effective.
On this sub menu, you can set the Id3v1 tags of the mp3 files.
For Id3v2 tags you need to find an editor.
For what is this editor useful for ?
Off course you could use it to convert one file just after an other and set each time the tags if you want.
This is just no very efficient, and it is probably better to use an other tag editor.
So why this editor ?
Well, when you are converting files, the soft will assign tags to the file at the moment of it's creation. This setting can be useful if for example you're converting starting from the same album of the same singer (so same album, singer, year, style tag).
After that, you can off course set specific comments for each files, you should save time anyway.
Then you can (always to save time), set as title tag, the name of the file like it is in the title row in the file listing. (be careful this tag is limited in size).
You can increment the track number starting from the first number that is written.
(useful for tracks of a same album), you can check the box "increment track" to use this option.
Be sure that your files have a correct order in the file list.
