Of the 4 search databases I use, it is only found on iCroons (which I think has some either missing or incorrect information here) There are 6 discs in the set, with the first one having 99 tracks. 

 

There are some very interesting tracks on here as well, most not found elsewhere, making me think it may be a homemade collection that found a listing on the archive section of iCroons. 

 

 

 

 

Mee..... I never even thought about Icroons.

Hi Billy,

It has gone.

Everytime I added more discs I checked the downloads folder and deleted tracks that appeared in my new discs.

Soon enough, all of the tracks were found to be duplictes of tracks on the new discs I had.

So it just got deleted.

Is there anything specific you were wanting?

 

Lee.

Thanks Lee. Nothing I was wanting. You obviously are doing an integral job!

Fist off, thank you everyone who has filled my requests, especially @Dndstudio& @ksk778! You both are extremely talented, and generous with your time!

 

I have one more request, and I don't think it will be an easy one. It's a very popular mashup between Green Day vs. Oasis vs. Travis vs. Eminem called "Boulevard of Broken Songs". The mp3 can be found here:

I use Yt-dlp - easy to use, open source, updated frequently & lot's of options for saving, works with lots of other sites (including iplayer).

A couple of examples:

extract audio

yt-dlp "yourvideosite.com?v=dfdfdfd" -x --audio-format mp3

 

extract best video to mp4

yt-dlp "yourvideosite.com?v=dfdfdfd" -f "bv*[ext=mp4]+ba[ext=m4a]/b[ext=mp4] / bv*+ba/b"

 

 

I also use it in a powershell terminal to loop through a text file containing a list of different video url's 

$links = get-content -path C:\apps\list.txt | Where-Object { $_.Trim() -ne '' }
foreach ($url in $links) {start-process -FilePath C:\Apps\yt-dlp.exe -ArgumentList "$url -f bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best" -wait}

Hi BJ,

All advice is welcome!

Yeah, you will find the full 2TB of files is in MP3+CDG format 

I did explain way-back-when why I was doing it this way...

While I am working on these collections it is unavoidable.

 

Re-tagging/checking/swapping faulty .cdg files/ bulk editing etc. etc. I have to work with unzipped files.

Some of the programs I use won't deal with zips.

Also, I have found many errors simply by unzipping the files in the first place!

I guess once my work is done (!) I could zip everything back up, but in the meantime, everything is MP3+CDG and I will leave it up to people to decide whether they want to re-zip them if they take some files.

 

*Of course, you can't save space by zipping an MP3, it is just the .CDG that compresses, but as you say, these squash down by a fair bit.*

 

Lee.

 

Hi Lee and all,

 

I wrote some scripts a while back to help with zipping / unzipping of karaoke files.  I'll post them here in case they help someone.   Please note you need to have 7zip.exe installed.  Copy & paste the code into a bat file & run it inside the folder you want it to process - Important: it's recursive so will go through each subfolder.

 

I will suggest that if you don't understand the code, don't run it.   If you want to try it out, try it in a test folder.

 

This will put matching cdg & mp3 files into a zip. i.e.  my song.mp3 & mysong.cdg will be placed into a zip called mysong.zip

@ECHO OFF
REM zip cdg & matching mp3 to a zip file with the same name (deletes original file).
REM if no matching file found no action is taken & original file is left in place.

FOR /R %%F IN (*.cdg) DO IF EXIST "%%~dpnF.mp3" pushd "%%~dpF"&"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7Z.exe" a "%%~nF.zip" "%%~nF.cdg" "%%~nF.mp3" -sdel&POPD
GOTO :eof

 

This one extracts the contents of the zip file in to the current folder.  It will go through each subfolder & extract the zip contents.

@ECHO OFF
REM this file extracts loops through all subfolders & extracts the zip files to their repective directories

SET 7z="C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe"
SETLOCAL
FOR /R %%f IN (*.zip) DO CALL :process "%%f"
goto :eof

:process
REM pushd
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" e %1 -o"%~dp1"

So you are a spammer, yet you were able to hide yourself with other karaoke enthusiasts, biding your time, waiting for 100% post approval then spamming us. 

 

It's under further review.... All spammers found in this chat/thread will be removed...
