Hi all,
Is there a way to skip duplicate song imports with MSF files?

The only option I have is update or add new song.

I don't want to update the songs just in case it removes the notation edits

Any suggestions?

Thanks

That's something I will have to add support for. I remember looking through the code, and it's extremely tedious to support skipping a song, as I would have to advance the current file position until it reaches the start of the next song in the file. An unoptimized/slow way to do this (but much easier to implement) would be to just advance one byte at a time until I reach the next start of song marker in the file, but I'm not sure I would like the performance of that approach. The better option is to read all the song data but then ignore it, but I may have to edit a fair amount of code to do that. I'm going to have to spend some time investigating this.

Hi Mike, Thanks for your reply.... I found a work around with selecting add the duplicate song and then on the next screen it gives you the option to skip

I'm glad to hear that. I still am going to add an option to skip when time allows, but it's good to know there is a workaround that will function for you.
