        can jjsut track times be parsed by the parser?

      • 2006-05-18 13835, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        there's a "parse times" button now
      • 2006-05-18 13839, 2006

      • BrianG
        even from the information from a CDID?

      • ojnkpjg
        why does every distribution alias rm, mv and others for root
      • 2006-05-18 13848, 2006

      • warp
        but I expect the MB track parsers expects the tracktitle in front of it, right?
      • 2006-05-18 13855, 2006

      • lauri
        to make you have to try a little harder to shoot yourself in the foot
      • 2006-05-18 13803, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        if you just use "parse times" it doesn't need titles
      • 2006-05-18 13812, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        just a list of track times will do

      • 2006-05-18 13836, 2006

      • warp
        now to hunt down which album it was
      • 2006-05-18 13838, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        you might have to uncheck "all track names start with a number" or such
      • 2006-05-18 13849, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        either that or print out the track number before the time
