Initial Setup

 

 

After installing MediaQue Please follow these steps:

1) Choose your file associations from the options menu, if you are not sure then click them all.

2) Choose your file extensions from the options menu, if you are not sure then click them all.

3) In Options, set Media Paths to the media you want to include in MediaQue, if you have the paid version you can set network paths to your media.

4) Configure “Fade on Demand” from the Options menu, the three fade settings are user
definable and set in milliseconds. So if you set Level one (the [1] button) to 20ms and
Level two (the [2] button) to 100ms, and Level three (the [3] button to 150ms, you will
have 3 distinct fade time staring with button [1] being the fastest fade and button [3] being the slowest fade.

5) Last but not least, make sure all MediaQue directories, and Media Location drives and directories are shared and the correct permissions are set for each machine connecting to your MediaQue server machine.

Once you have completed steps 1 – 5 then proceed:

6) From the tools menu press “Update Library”. If the system hangs during this process,
note the media it got hung up on, go find it and move or delete it, it’s probably bad
media, then “Clear Library” and retry the “Update Library” command.

7) Set your default Video Mode from the Options menu to your choice of normal or full
screen.

8) It is best to leave the “Program Priority” at normal unless you are operating a
dedicated server and nothing else will be running on that machine.

Searching

 

 

To search for a song, video or image, click the corresponding A,V or I Button and type
into the Search Textbox the Title or Artist name or a combination of the two. If you want
to find an exact title or narrow the search to a minimal, I find that if you type 3
letters of the Artist name and 3 letters of the Song title you will get a pretty close
match. This all depends on how you have named your media in the database. In most cases the format is Artist, dash, Title. i.e. “Richie Valens – Donna”.
The top and bottom search textbox fields act the same. You can use either one or both of them to search your media. If you are searching for multiple songs by the same artist you
can just type the artist in either textbox, you can type the artist name in the top one
and the song or partial song title in the bottom one, then after it’s found you can
replace the bottom one with the new song title. This is strictly for ease of use and
flexibility.

Advanced Search

 

For searches that are more detailed or based on other criteria the Advanced search capabilities in MediaQue are very powerful. Some of the Advanced search fields are stored in the MP3 TAG information such as the Artist, Title, Album, Year, Genre, Bitrate & Frequency. So if this information is already in the MP3 TAG ID, then it will display. If it is not present these fields will be blank and you can enter the TAG data right here in the Advanced Search section of MediaQue.

Other information such as Intro Length, Keyword Searches and lyrics searches are stored in the MediaQue database and may also be entered here. We will talk about these features and how to use them.

In each case the small GO button at the end of the textbox will cause the search to begin,
make sure you don’t have too many of these fields populated when searching or you will not get any results.

The top three buttons “Exact Match, Clear and Search All” are for the top textbox fields
only. The bottom Three buttons “Select All & Clear are for the Listbox control, you can
also use your RMB to Select All & copy selected to the ML.

You cannot drag from this list to any other lists.

You can sort the Results List by clicking on the column headers for Media Name, Title and, Artist, Album, Year, Genre, Bitrate & Frequency. You may have to use the horizontal scroll bars to see the other fields.

You can attach lyrics to any song by highlighting the song and pressing Right mouse, Lyrics, or you can go through Media Details, Lyrics. A Lyric sheet style window appears, you can load an existing file in or Copy & Paste any text into this window. The window will also accept links to folders or web locations that can link the song to relevant information. Using the Right Mouse Menu you can print the lyrics sheet to any installed local or remote printer. (Set up in Windows Printers)

All the words or phrases in all your lyrics can be searched in the Advanced Search area by going to the “Keyword & Lyrics Search” type in your keyword, click the “Search in Lyrics” button and press “GO”. Songs with exact matching keywords and phrases will appear in the results window and can be copied to your Main List for playing. Use the Right Mouse Button to do this.

Lyrics Searches

 

 

You can attach lyrics to any song by highlighting the song and pressing Right mouse, Lyrics, or you can go through Media Details, Lyrics. A Lyric sheet style window appears, you can load an existing file in or Copy & Paste any text into this window. The window will also accept links to folders or web locations that can link the song to relevant information. Using the Right Mouse Menu you can print the lyrics sheet to any installed local or remote printer. (Set up in Windows Printers)

All the words or phrases in all your lyrics can be searched in the Advanced Search area by going to the “Keyword & Lyrics Search” type in your keyword, click the “Search in Lyrics” button and press “GO”. Songs with exact matching keywords and phrases will appear in the results window and can be copied to your Main List for playing. Use the Right Mouse Button to do this.

 Keyword Searches

 

Adding keywords to media is easy. In Media Details click the “Add Keywords” button. Enter keywords or phrases. They will appear below, and also on the drop down list in Media Details. You can add an unlimited number of Keywords to Media.

 Intro Searches

 

With MediaQue you can mark the specific time a song has for an intro by finding the song in the Main List, highlighting it, Media Details, In “Start, Stop & Intro Times”, press the start button, then wait until the vocals start and press Intro. This will mark the spot and record it in the database.

When searching for a specific intro time (15sec, 30sec, 45 sec etc.) you go into the Advanced Search area to “Intro Length Search”, type in the desired length and press the “Go” button. The results of the search will be listed in the view below. Then you can highlight the song and copy it to the Main List for playing.

Note: This feature only works for songs.

  Media Details

 

The Media Details section is slightly different for Songs, Video or Images. When you use your RMB on the media of choice, MediaQue knows the type of media and displays the correct type of information. If you are editing song media, you will see a set of search boxes that are related to music only. There will be the MP3 TAG information and the MediaQue information that pertains to MP3’s only. Video media will have different features available to mark and store segments of video that can be cued and played from the various lists.

 PL & DL BAsics

 

Pressing the DL Button, will open up the Directory Listing. It is divided into four sections, the top two panes “The Preview Listing” or PL and the bottom two panes “The Directory Listing” or DL. You can expand the all panes to full view by double clicking on the top blue Caption Bar. Double clicking the Caption Bar again will return all panes to the original size and state. Media can be played form the PL & DL when expanded by double clicking on the media, but you won’t be able view the player until you return the DL to it’s original state by again double clicking on the Caption Bar at the top.

The left panes are directories and the right panes are files in those directories.

In the top panes “PL” all your inbound media is stored here, this is where your media can be previewed, renamed, cleaned and edited before it’s put into the MediaQue database. Media in this area will not be available at search time.

The bottom panes “DL” are where your actual media files reside, all files in this area will be in the MediaQue database and ready for searching.

 Adding Media

 

The first time you add you media to the MediaQue database, all you media will be available for searches and adding lyrics, pictures and other data. But if you’re like most music enthusiasts your media library will continue to grow. The question then is how to get my new media into the system so I can find it too. We have come up with a system that works for us and most people.

When you open up the “DL” Listing, at the top you have your inbound locations. Media that has not yet been entered into the database is held here until it is previewed, cleaned, edited and re-named. Then you may want to move it to the same location as the rest of your media.

To add media to the MediaQue database select the song, movie or image in the top “PL” right pane and holding down the Right Mouse Button, Drag media to it’s new location in the bottom “DL” right pane.

To do this make sure the media is cleaned (see above) highlight the media (can be multiples) open up the bottom of the “DL” panel to where you want the media to reside and drag the media to it’s destination. Media will be physically moved to the new location (network or local) and added to the MediaQue database.

Removing Media 2 

 

There are two ways to remove media from MediaQue. One method removes the media from the database and deletes the file from the system, One does not. To remove the media from the database only, highlight the media and Right Click, “Delete to Bin”. This will put the media into the Media Recycle Bin which you can find at the bottom of both “DL” & “PL” lists. This will just hold the media there until it is dealt with. Either deleted or put back into the system (Drag to new location in DL)

By choosing “Delete (Kill File)” the media will be removed from the database and deleted from the system even by- passing windows recycle bin.

 MP3 Tag Info

 

 

You can view the current MP3 TAG Information (if any) by highlighting the song, Right Click, “MP3 TAG info” to bring up a view of the current Tag info. Click on the black box again to close the window. Available only in “PL”

 Edit Media

 

To Edit the media in say Soundforge, or other audio editor right Click, “Open With” will allow you to set up an editor that will link directly to your media. You can now just save back to the original directory and refresh MediaQue. This is available in “PL”, “DL” & the “ML”

 Verify & Repair

 

In the left pane, Right Click, you can Verify & Repair. Use this if you find that Media has gotten into your “DL” area and can’t be found in your searches. This will check the database for the specific media and add it if is not there. You will only need to run this once, if it’s still not there then you need to check your file extensions setup in “Options”

Any time you change something in either of these panes, you must Right Click, “Refresh”. Be conscious of other stations on your network that may still have their DL panes open, they must be refreshed also to view changed data and protect MediaQue from trying to play deleted or moved media.

View Full Paths

 

Depending which list you are in or the media location you may not have enough room to see the entire song name, as well you may wish to see where it’s located. From the main screen click the “DL” Button. The black line at the top of the window will show the path of the currently highlighted media. It still may not be long enough to show network paths and longer song names. Right Click on this black line and choose “Show Full Path”. At the bottom of the pane you will see another black space this will display the location and title of anything highlighted in any lists (ML, PL, DL, SL), not just the currently playing media. This space will also wrap to another line if the path is extra long.

 Copy Media

 

From this area you can copy media to another Folder by highlighting the specific media, Right Click, “Copy To Folder”, a dialog box will let you create and copy the media to a folder anywhere.

From the “DL” only you can select specific media and “Right Click” Add To ML or SL. This allows you to sift through your media with the DL expanded and send specific media to either list for playing or to create a saved Playlist.

 Corrective Measures

 

If you need to move media from one location to another after it has already been added to the MediaQue database, find the wrongly placed media in “DL”, find the right location in the “DL” left pane and holding down the left mouse button, drag the media to it’s new location. The Media will be physically moved on the network and the MediaQue database will be updated.

 Private Media

 

From both the “PL” & “DL” left panes you can also turn your media to Private to protect specific media from being used or seen in searches. See section for “Content Management”

 Video Segmenting

 

MediaQue has a special feature for setting bookmarks within your large video media files. The bookmarks or segments can be marked in the Media Details area for Video Media Only. In the create Video Segment box, start the media. When you want to start marking the segment press “Start” wait or advance to the beginning of the desired segment and press “Mark In” again wait or advance to the end of the desired segment and press “Mark Out”. The segment will appear in the “Marked Video Segments” window. You can now edit the title of the segment and add comments about the segment by clicking in the corresponding area of the segment.

You can create as many segments as required for each video or Media Clip.

Note: Searching for Video Segments is not available in this version of MediaQue. The advanced version of MediaQue Pro Evolve Server has this and other features for searching and displaying video segments and including them in playlists.

Pictures To Media 

 

MediaQue allows a large number of pictures to be directly attached to song media and viewed when a song is searched. To connect a picture to a song highlight the song, go to Media Details, Pictures. A black window will appear, if there are pictures already attached they will also be visible. To add a picture just drag the picture into this black window. Note: you must be sure that the source picture is a real image not just a link as you will find if you drag from the web using your browser. To do this you must drill down and find the actual image before dragging into MediaQue. Then to view all your pictures use the scroll wheel on your mouse.

 Sheet Music

 

Sheet music can be attached to songs much in the same way pictures are attached to individual media.(See above) It is assumed that you are not violating any copyright laws using sheet music as most works are copyrighted. If the work is your own or you have the right to copy, scan in the document and drag it into the black window pertaining to the correct song. The way to search for sheet music is to search for the song, right click, Media Details, Sheet Music button.

 Import Export Lyrics

 

If you wish to re-build your database from scratch or you are starting over for various reasons, you can export all of your lyrics out of the database, then build your new database and import your lyrics back in. It is very rare that you may want to do this but it is here as a security measure for your data. Lyrics must be Exported out of MediaQue before they can be imported.

From the Tools menu choose Export Lyrics, choose the location to Export to, and press the Export Button. A message “Export Complete” will appear, press “Ok” and “Done” to exit.

To Import just perform the above in reverse, choose “Import Lyrics”, “Import From…” Press the Import Button. A message “Import Complete” will appear, press “Ok” and “Done” to exit.

 Time In & Out

 

Songs that have noise or spaces at the beginning or end of the songs can be skipped at playtime by using the Time In/Out off the Main Menu, “Options”, “Use Time In / Out”

Times for this feature can be marked in the “Media Details” section, “Start, Stop & Intro Times”. Start by highlighting the song, Media Details, In “Start, Stop & Intro Times”, press the “In” button, then wait for the new start time, and press the “In” button again. This will mark the spot and record it in the database, wait for the “Out Time” and press the “Out” Button to mark the Out time.

To use this feature, from the Main Menu click “Options”, “Use Time In / Out” to toggle this feature on or off.

 Program Priority

 

This section should only be changed by qualified and knowledgeable people as it can have diverse effects on a computer system depending what you’re running in the background or in addition to MediaQue.

 Random Play

 

Once your database is created and you are searching and playing songs, you may want to just have MediaQue pick songs for you at random. There are two ways of doing this depending on what you want to do. To have MediaQue go to the database and randomly choose songs and play them one after another, click on a blank Main List and press CTRL-F1 for songs, CTL-F2 for Videos and CTRL-F3 for Images. This will start a cycle of MediaQue choosing a random song then another one and so on until stop is pressed, another search is performed or a song is played.

You may want to limit the selections MediaQue chooses. There are two ways to do this. One is to select the songs or load a large playlist. Pressing Shft-F1 with a loaded playlist will choose only songs in the playlist at random.

The other way to limit selections in random play is to use content management to lockout private files.

You can also use Random Play in a slightly different manner. It is called Delayed Random Effect (DRE)and Delayed Random Return (DRR). By Pressing Crtl Shift F1, while a song is playing indicates to MediaQue that after the current song has ended then MediaQue will switch the system into Random Mode , a green LED light will now be visible on the MediaQue Main Screen. This Random mode will continue until you either press the Stop button, Close MediaQue or Press Ctrl Shift F1 again. If Ctrl Shift F1 is pressed again a red light will appear on the MediaQue main Screen, this means that after the song that is currently playing ends, MediaQue will switch back to your control (no More Random Songs) and play the currently highlighted song in the Main List. If your “C” – Continue button is depressed then your list will continue.

When the system is in DRE mode you can still search and display other songs you want to play. If you double click on a song in ML to play, the song will play immediately, after the song finishes DRE mode will be back in effect playing Random Songs Again.

Playlists 

 

Playlists are a powerful way to store, organize and retrieve your media. They can hold songs, videos and images, and can be played remotely. First thing to remember is that there are two types of playlists: Main Playlists, and Server Playlists. Main lists are for media in the Main List ML, and the Server List is for the SL. That said when you Right Click on ML choose Load or Save Playlist. The same is true when you Right Click on SL, Choose Load or Save Playlist. They will load into the appropriate area, adding to the existing media in the list.

The great advantage of this is the ability to be on a client, load in a SL Playlist located on the client, and play the media on the server immediately.

 Removing Media

 

There are two ways to remove media from MediaQue. One method removes the media from the database and deletes the file from the system, One does not. To remove the media from the database only, highlight the media and Right Click, “Delete to Bin”. This will put the media into the Media Recycle Bin which you can find at the bottom of both “DL” & “PL” lists. This will just hold the media there until it is dealt with. Either deleted or put back into the system (Drag to new location in DL)

By choosing “Delete (Kill File)” the media will be removed from the database and deleted from the system even by- passing windows recycle bin.

 Burning Media

 

The hardest part of burning media is finding all the tunes you want to burn. With MediaQue as you have discovered by now that’s a snap. So to simplify the process, find your choice of songs, from the Main List “ML” highlight all the songs by clicking CTRL-A then drag using your Right Mouse button to a new folder on your desktop. All songs will be copied to that folder. You can also highlight the songs and Right Click “Copy to Folder”, then browse to your folder, even create the folder from the browse dialog.

Once the media is in the folder, it should be copied to the machine that has the CD Burner in it, as it is not good to burn a CD over the network. Network Lag can foul up a good Burn. If you are expecting to play the CD in a car or home CD Player before the media can be burned it must be converted to Wave files. There are many free utilities that do that on the fly, download one and convert your media to wave files or let your burning software handle that for you. I prefer to have it all done before I try to burn. I get less coasters.

Content Management

 

 

The way MediaQue handles this is to make some of your media private. Only a password lies between accessing your media or not so remember all your security depends on your password. Do not set simple easy passwords if you wish to really protect your media. To set media to private go to the DL (Directory Listing) section by pressing the DL button from the main screen. Find the directory where the media is located. Highlight the directory and click Right Mouse button. Click private and a password box will appear, if this is the first time you have done this you will have to set your password first by entering it in twice. Once done, the media folder will be marked in Red and all media in the folder will not be visible.

To make the media public again, repeat the procedure and the folder will be visible again. Once the media is made private searches will not display the items in these folders. Random plays will not find or choose any of the items either. You can privatize as many folders as you like.

As a quick way to get to the privatized media, MediaQue has a hotkey just for this task. CTRL-SHFT-E will Expose all of your media that is privatized and make them All public, of course you’ll have to know the password. To set them all back to Private just press CTRL-SHFT-E again, do the password thing, and all media that was private is now private again.

Any time you use the expose key or set media to public or private you have the option to change the password. Click the box “Change Password” when asked for your password, put in the correct existing password, and the change password box will come up.

 Client Server Features

 

The Client / Server features of MediaQue can be setup only if you have the MQRS package installed on one or more computers. They will communicate with each other and allow clients to program the server, use the Server’s database, and Request songs from the Server using Requestline. You will need to have one computer set as the Client and one set as the Server. A port must be opened over your network if you have a firewall (default port 1475) and you must have all passwords, permissions and shares set up correctly to the MediaQue Install Directory to make this work.

Connect a Client to a Server by: when on a client click on “Options” “Client/Server Config”. The Top button “Use Request Server” must be clicked on, then type in the “Name of the Server, just the name, no paths. type in the “Name of the Client” your current machine name (find this by right clicking on “My Computer, Properties, and then on the Network Identification Tab.) Set a default port number to use on your network (eg.1475)

Finally, choose if you are acting as a client or the server. This can be switched when you need to but the names of each must be switched as well. Press “Done” to exit

If you have a firewall, don’t forget to open this port, TPC & UDP for both directions. See your firewall documentation to allow both in and out packet filters for MediaQue.

 Connect to Server

 

Under “Options”, “Set Media Paths” you will see at the bottom “Database Path”. Browse to the server’s location, and then the MediaQue installation directory. All shares and permissions must be set to allow access to the Directory. If Windows XP has been updated you may have trouble getting to the program Files directory while browsing. If so try typing in the full path to the Server’s database manually.

 Server List Control

 

To control a server’s “SL” not to be confused with a Playlist this is the actual list of songs or media playing at the time. Once songs are loaded into the list either by loading a saved playlist or choosing selected media for the list from a Client or a Server, the list can be played by double clicking on the media or pressing the play button in the “SL”.

The media can be moved within the list to any location preferred by clicking once on the left icon, then dragging the media to the new location in the list. A line will be visible to show the current position of the media, when you find its’ new destination just let go. This only works for single media at present.

 Remote Play

 

If a client wishes to control a Server’s output, it may do so by using hard controls and Hotkeys in the “SL”. (Check Hotkey Information above) While in a client if you double click the media in the “SL” it will execute on the Server. This is true for all types of media. The function Keys or Hot Keys are all available when in Remote Play mode and you may add or drag media within the list for automated server broadcasting.

 Log Files

 

MediaQue keeps precise logs of all media played on all clients or servers. These logs are found in the MediaQue directory of the server. Log Files are accessed from the Main Menu, View, Log Files. You will see the MediaQue Log Viewer.

There are Three (3) types of log files. Play logs, Random Logs, and Request Logs. Choose the type of log file you wish to access at the top of the Log Viewer. Choose the day (date) of the appropriate log file and it’s contents are displayed in the window. Scroll horizontally to see all the information associated with the log entry, by using the horizontal scroll bars.

Play Log entries include time of play, length of playtime, machine played on, originating list, path and filename. You can create a Play List from the entire logfile or selected items in the logfile. To create a Play List from a Log File, highlight the media you wish to include or leave blank to select all, and press the “Export Log” File Button, choose your destination location or accept the default MediaQue Play List folder.

Random Log Entries are for the special times when you want to Log an item for a number of reasons. It may need to be updated later, or re-encoded, or re-named and you don’t have the time, right then, just highlight the item and press “CTRL-L” the media will be logged for later viewing.

RequestLine Logs are recorded after every request is made from a RequestLine module to a Server. This helps to provide quality information about what is actually being requested as apposed to what’s being played.

Note: When Log Files are converted to Play Lists any media that was originally played from the “PL” will not be included as it is not in the database and may not be present on your system any more. Only Media that is in the MediaQue database will be converted into Play Lists.

 File Associations

 

 

If you have set MediaQue as your default windows file association for Music, Video & Images (MP3, AVI, and JPG etc.) MediaQue will open the file automatically when you click on it from windows.

Some things to note when using this feature:

This works even if the files are not in the MediaQue database and will not add any of the displayed files to the database. If you click on an image that is in a root folder (lower hierarchy) MediaQue will load up all the files below it. This is why it may take a few seconds to load the picture view window of MediaQue. Then you can use your mouse scroll to sift through all the pictures.

If you click on a video it will be played automatically, and when it has ended, MediaQue will just terminate. If an ESC key is pressed then MediaQue will auto terminate. No need to close the application manually, although if you terminate the video before it has completed by pressing the stop button, MediaQue will remain open.

If you are playing songs this way and you click on another song while one song is playing, both songs will play in two instances of MediaQue. You can open many separate instances of MediaQue at a time so be careful.

 Playing CDs

 

MediaQue will also play commercial CD’s. Just put the CD in the CDROM player and if your file associations are set to open CDA (CD Audio) with MediaQue it will autoplay. If they are not set you may have to load MediaQue and point to the CDROM drive and click on one or all of the tracks you wish to play. CDA Tracks cannot be saved in the MediaQue database as they may not be available at play time if the CD is not in the correct CDROM drive. But they can be converted to MP3’s and saved in a new location, then added to the MediaQue database.

Playing DVD’s with MediaQue is just as simple. Put your DVD title into the DVD drive on your system (required) from the “View Menu” choose Play DVD. A simple window will appear with only two buttons at the top left of the screen. Press “Play DVD” and your DVD title will start. To pause the DVD play, press the space bar at any time. F5 will toggle between Full Screen and Normal window.
