Ptrol Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I have 2 albums with songs ouf of the album itself, and these songs are in another album with .cue in it I want to know how can I take these songs from the cue album and put them in the other album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Are these songs separate audio files, or are they part of one large audio file which is being split into multiple songs using a .CUE file? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptrol Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 ehh, both albums are separate songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 If all of the songs are separate files, but are referenced in one album CUE file (why?) just edit the CUE files and copy the details of the songs in question from one CUE file over to another one. I must confess I didn't realise that the CUE format supported multiple source audio files within on CUE file, I thought it was only designed to split one single large file into smaller song-sized chunnks. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_sheet_(computing) or http://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Cue_sheet for details of the format of CUE files.

Ptrol Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 wait, from the cue of the song to the song itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 If you can't work it out from the CUE documents, perhaps you could provide more info (what files are stored where, contents of the CUE files, etc, and what you actually want to do in detail) Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptrol Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 I could do some draws of the problem, because I can't record the screen of my phone or I could give you the album so you see for yourself the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Just upload the CUE file here for starters (it will be plain text). And an idea of where on your device the files are stored too would be good (the full path). Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewilley Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 And this CUE file is located inside the same folder as the 14 matching music .WAV files, yes? So if it's not a silly question, why are you using a CUE file at all? It contains nothing but a list of 14 audio filenames which Poweramp will have scanned anyway? No other path, or titles, or artist info, e.g.: REM GENRE Indie REM DATE 1989 REM DISCID C107630E REM COMMENT "ExactAudioCopy v0.99pb5" FILE "01 - I've got Drugs (Out of the Mist).wav" WAVE TRACK 01 AUDIO INDEX 01 00:00:00 TRACK 02 AUDIO INDEX 00 02:19:02 FILE "02 - I Don't Care If U Disrespect Me (Just So You Love Me).wav" WAVE INDEX 01 00:00:00 TRACK 03 AUDIO INDEX 00 02:01:55 FILE "03 - Hot Cock Annie.wav" WAVE INDEX 01 00:00:00 TRACK 04 AUDIO INDEX 00 02:17:50 Also I would question the need to use WAV files on a phone too, there are much smaller file formats which make a lot more sense (and if you want to stay with lossless, use FLAC). If you want to reference them elsewhere, in a new list with songs from another album too, create a Playlist. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptrol Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 the playlist deletes when I reset, and sometimes the CUE folder dissapears so I have to do the playlist again it's not .WAV it's .FLAC I don't know if that makes any difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Your filenames in the CUE file state .wav not .flac However I repeat, why are you using CUE files at all when they are doing is pointing to 14 separate song files in the same folder?

Ptrol Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 I don't know anything about CUE tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 CUE files are normally used when you have a very long audio file (perhaps an hour-long rip of a whole CD) which you want to separate into smaller chunks such as individual songs. However your songs are already individual files, so the CUE file is just making things unnecessarily complicated. If you remove the CUE file completely (maybe just rename it as .BAK for the moment, so you can get if back if you find you want to) each of the tracks should be detected by Poweramp's music scanner anyway.

Ptrol Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 oh, okay I'll try it I remember I tried this before but for some reason it didn't work, but now it works, thank you so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
