I'm looking for a bit of software to catalogue my CD collection, something like Delicious Library but for windows. I've been using MediaMan for the last few years, which was basically a windows DL clone, but its been all but abandoned now. Ideally supporting importing by scanning the barcode

If it can make keeping packages up to date as easy as in Linux it really would be the best thing ever.

Crashplan will with a bit of fiddling, I've been doing this for a couple of years with no problem http://support.code42.com/CrashPlan/Latest/Backup/Backing_Up_A_Windows_Network_Drive e: or you could just install crashplan on it and do it natively: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/UPDATED2014HowToSetupCrashPlanCloudBackupOnASynologyNASRunningDSM50.aspx Skarsnik fucked around with this message at 09:42 on Feb 11, 2015 |

You're looking for the forced subtitle flag Something like this would work http://www.my-guides.net/en/guides/general-video/how-to-add-subtitles-to-mkv-files-using-mkvmerge-gui or http://madaboutbrighton.net/articles/encode-forced-subtitles-using-mkvmerge if you're happy using a CLI

Dohaeris posted:I installed Windows 10 from Windows 7. I'd like to do the clean install now. My data is backed up on internal hard drives. Windows goes on the SSD. If I do a restore will it erase the files from all drives, or just the Windows one? Or should I do the usb/iso route? If you do a windows reset, it will specifically ask you if you want to wipe just the install disk or all your disks, its surprisingly well done

Well the disk is fine A quick Google suggests its nothing to do with the drive and a steam issue. Possibly a permissions thing? https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/541907867750669578/

IcePhoenix posted:I just built my first computer (hooray) and installed windows 7, but I've run into a problem. I don't have an optical drive on it (because I never use them), and whenever I boot up windows the ONLY extensions that work are the Keyboard and Mouse (because I turned on PS/2 emulation in the BIOS I assume). Because of this I can't install any drivers, and because I can't install any drivers Windows won't recognize the network card or any of my USB ports (both 2.0 and 3.0). It won't even recognize my second hard drive (I installed it on my SSD). You might as well just go straight to win 10? You'd probably get all the drivers as standard Not long left before the free upgrade ends, and you can do a clean install that way Skarsnik fucked around with this message at 09:23 on May 6, 2016 |

Yeah you can just plug in your win 7 key to the installer You'd need to find another computer to download the media creation tool through

After trying a few programs over the years its the one I settled on too and it works great. I've got a 500+ CD collection and I mostly keep a record of it for insurance purposes I got an old cuecat off eBay for a few quid to scan the bar codes

Just do a new install and stick your 7 key in, it still works by all accounts

Keepass is definitely more secure, but a lot less convenient Not to say lastpass isn't secure, it's what I use, as the convenience far far outweighs any downsides The android client is really really good, especially now it's free, and recent updates to the Chrome client make it really nice
|
# ¿ Mar 1, 2017 09:26 |

By more convenient I mean not having to deal with moving and keeping an archive around and updated, and deal with a pretty janky app that doesn't do autofill very well (though that may have improved since i tried it a few years back) I'm also happy with the way lastpass dealt with the last security breach, and confident nothing of mine was actually compromised in any way If it wasn't as convenient, I'd probably slip into old and lazy habits again. So I've weighed it up, and stuck with lastpass

spincube posted:I've lately spent my time in lockdown ripping my music CD collection to FLAC, as a 'once and for all' kind of thing. For the sake of speed I've so far focussed on getting everything ripped and stored in the standard albumartist\albumtitle format, with coverart; but now that I'm done, I'd like to meddle with the tags and the directory structure so that everything's 'just so'. I used easytag to sort out my collection recently. I was using the linux version but its identical on windows
