Find All Media

findAllMedia -- returns RSS formatted XML data

Description

Find All Media is only available when running Wimpy in "Automatic" mode. When this option is set, Wimpy will return a playlist that contains all of the media in the Wimpy Installation folder, including all media files located within sub folders. (e.g. Finds all media recursively).

Before using this option, you must enable it within rave.php/asp/cfm by setting "findAllMediaBlock" to false.

To enable this option, open rave.php/asp/cfm up with a text editor and scroll down to where you see:

// findAllMedia / findAllMediaBlock
// To enable "findAllMedia" this variable needs to be set to "false"
// Example:
// $findAllMediaBlock = false;
$findAllMediaBlock = true;

Change "findAllMediaBlock" so it reads as follows:

// findAllMedia / findAllMediaBlock
// To enable "findAllMedia" this variable needs to be set to "false"
// Example:
$findAllMediaBlock = false;

WARNING: Do not use this option if there are a lot of media files in your Wimpy installation folder. Especially if you have the "Extract ID3 Information" enabled. Attempting to retrieve thousands of track and / or load thousands of tracks into the player could cause Wimpy to "hog" all the server and system resources.
