How can I remove folder rip of monitored files of Windows Media Player 11?

RIP my CD to wav files on an external drive that I can use to make compilations of disc or mp3, but if I put this drive to be Windows Media Player rip folder, it includes it in the library of almost anything. As much as I have a separate player for mp3 (Yes, I don't keep my music in My Documents, Microsoft; I really don't like my music down from the ship), it includes the files wav and mp3 s, causing duplicates in my library. I only want to listen to mp3 because I use a computer as a network hub to my mp3.

How can I delete the folder rip as a watched folder, and why Microsoft does not insist on what actually monitored? I don't see the point. I now do a temp folder just for tears and move the wav files on before turning back to my library. Pain.

Hi dhinged,

Ripped files are automatically added to the Windows Media Player library. On the computer, the files are in the folder specified on the tab extract music from the Options dialog box. You can change the folder at any time, but it can not be removed from monitored by Windows Media Player.
Ref: where can I find the files that I ripped?

I suggest you to create folders separated external hard disk (wav) files ripped to mp3 so that you can monitor folders separately.
Ref: To change the files are controlled by the player: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Add-items-to-the-Windows-Media-Player-library

  • How can I exclude specific folders of the indexing of Windows Media Player stream?

    Windows Media Player 12 has removed the possibility of excluding some files being indexed.  This feature was available in Windows Media Player 11.  I need to be able to exclude some records indexed because I have collections of photos that are too big for the WMP player to manage.

    Excluding these folders in the library WMP is not an option because MediaCenter uses the settings of the library to determine where to find pictures (even if it does not use the library to view photos or videos - just the WMP settings) so if they are not included in the library WMP, I can't see them in MediaCenter, but if they are in the WMP library he freezes everything for 30 minutes whenever I turn on an Extender that forces a re-analysis of the WMP library.

    I tried to edit wmpfolders.wmdb to exclude certain files, but the changes that I last only for a few hours to a day or two.

    any ideas?

    Thank you
    Dan

    Hi Khaled, thank you very much for your answer.  My question was related to the media library in Windows Media Player, but your response was to Windows 7 libraries.  Unfortunately, your answer does not apply to my question.

    What I need to be able to do, is to exclude a folder from indexing of Windows Media Player streams although it is included in the list of folders to the index.  It's because the Media Center uses the settings of the library Windows Media Player to determine where to find pictures.  However, it does not use the Windows Media Library to view the photos.  It is, therefore, no need to have Windows Media Player, indexing of thousands of photos when Media Center does not even use the library to display.

    The problem is that when I let Windows Media Player scan my pics, it causes all to slow down for 30 minutes or more each time I light a MediaCenter extender because it is re-scanner all my photos.  However, if I let Windows Media Player not scan my photos, so they are not visible in the MediaCenter.  There is a catch 22.

  • How can TV 31RL938 - I find installation key for PC-Windows Media Player

    To watch DVD from PC - Windows Media Center (Windows 8) on my TV (31RL938, without fire related to the internet), I have to do an Extender installation with the Media Center on my PC (the TV symbol is on my PC).
    That's why I have to put in an installation key (8 digits), which should be on my TV / Extender by choosing 'Windows Media Center' here.

    But how can I find it?

    Thanks for the help!

    Have you managed that?

    To my knowledge the two devices; your TV and your PC must be connected to the same network: in my case its home WLan.

    I don t use Media Center, but I made the connection with Windows Media Player.
    Using the Media Player I can listen to the video and music to my TV or stereo receiver...

  • I can't remove songs off my cell phone using windows media player. I need help.

    I use Windows Media Player to put music on my cell phone, but now I can not remove the music. He repeats to me that I is not able to remove it. Could someone please help me so that I can get the music off my phone?

    This can vary greatly depending on the type of phone you have.  If you can let us know, we can help.

    But first of all, I would like to try this:

    1. Click on start and open the work «»
    2. If your phone is listed here, double-click on it and see if you can explore the files and delete normally.
    3. If it doesn't work the first time, try to go back to 'Computer' and this time, the phone with the right button and choose "Explorer" instead.  On some phones, it connects to a different method and allows you to use that way.
  • How can I change the Art of the track in Windows Media Player?

    I know how to change the album art and I already fixed, but tracks have individual art, designed by the artist, and I want those on their respective titles. I messed around with Windows Media Player for a little bit, but I like the still have not found anything useful.

    I really want this art of the track on my tracks, because it is very important to me.

    Hi NoelleFay,

    I know exactly what you mean, but I don't think that WMP allows this function because most artist do not include only cd art of track individual art.

    I advise you to search/post this question in the forum of Experts of Windows.

    There, the developers of real media meet to solve issues advanced like this.

    Hope this helps,

  • How can I remove a shared link Public file?

    How can I remove a shared link Public file?

    Apparently, Ive clicked on the share icon and clicked the link public.

    This means that the file (including sensitive information) was transferred to the internet? Where is he? What does the Public link? Can I get it back and I can remove them from the internet?

    Or does this mean that Acrobat Reader Document Cloud, it was shared on my device?

    BTW, I use a mobile Mobile Android, not on PD/computer / tablet.

    Please do advice which continues.

    When you share a public link, the document is downloaded into the cloud of document so that users who receive the link can download the document.

    However, it does not appear that you have completed the workflow (in fact sent a link to anyone) so it is unlikely that someone has seen the document. For instructions on sharing, see Adobe Acrobat Reader for Android help: print, share, e-mail.

    If you has not sent the link to someone specifically through gmail or some other app (step 5 in the instructions), then no one, but you can view the document.

    To remove the file from your personal cloud storage space, connect to https://cloud.acrobat.com/, go to file and delete the file.
