How to use Jaikoz question

[rpm4fsu]

First before going any further, I want to say that I find Jaikoz to be an excellent program, and your support is also excellent, and all for one low price. I have gotten my money worth and more. I have spent way more money for far less quality product.

Now the question.

The way I use Jaikoz is that I will collect 20 to 30 songs over the course of a couple days.

I then run these songs through Jaikoz to tag and then save the songs in my iTunes folder.

I then run a third party software that will look through my iTunes folder looking for songs that are not in the iTunes database and install into iTunes database.

I also use another third party software to weed out duplicates songs.

If I am only working with 20-30 songs in a session where does Jaikoz look for duplicates or does it only look for duplicates in the 20-30 songs that I have loaded.

I looked at the help about the “Database Folder” and it only sounds like it on caches the data for the loaded songs. I assume that once I save the songs that the cache information is removed?

Can you explain how this works or should I be doing this different?

Thanks

Yes it only compares the files loaded, memory permitting you could load all files and then run delete duplicates (remember it works of Musicbrainz Ids by default)

I looked at the help about the “Database Folder” and it only sounds like it on caches the data for the loaded songs. I assume that once I save the songs that the cache information is removed?

The information remains in the cache, so songs can be reloaded in to Jaikoz quicker next time, but the other songs are in the cache are not consulted when matching duplicates.
