Add Files Wizard

Add your music files to the Helium Music Manager library to enable browsing, tagging, renaming, report creating and statistics viewing of your entire music collection. The Add Files to Library tool also automatically assigns album pictures to your albums so you can browse your albums by thumbnails in the different program views.

Adding Files to the Database

Start the Add Files to Library tool by using one of the methods below:
- Click the File > Add Music > Add Files to Library menu option.
- Press CTRL-Insert on your keyboard.
Browse your computer and checkmark the drives or folders that you would like to scan for music files. All sub-folders of a checkmarked drive or folder will be scanned for music files.
Click the Show Advanced button to select the specific file types you would like to add to your library. You can right click this list to quickly select either all or no file types.
Optionally click the Select button to select a Collection and Volume to add the music files to.
Click OK to start scanning the selected drives and folders for music files.
The tool will start indexing your files (searching for them on your computer). This step might take a while, depending on the size of the selected drives or folders and the amount of music files within.
The next step is to add the files to your database. This step can be performed in the background. Click the Hide button to hide the adding dialog. Information about the adding progress will be shown in the lower left of the main window.

Note:

You can make the Add Files to Library tool automatically search for album pictures in folders or in tags. Enable this option from Options.
You can add a single specific directory (recursive) from the Show Advanced options. Enter the full path to this directory in the Custom directory to add text field. Please note that when this field is filled, it will override the selection in the tree list control.
