tweaking cuesheet times in mp3directcut?

2004-05-22 21:29:12

i'm using mp3directcut to split all-in-one-file albums with cuesheets into multiple files. frequently the times in the cuesheet are off by a bit. i can see the gap between songs near the cut point, but i haven't been able to figure out if there's a way to move the cut point to the gap visually through the gui.

i know i can edit the cuesheet times manually and reload, but that's a pain. i'm hoping someone else has figured this out. thanks!

Sorry to pull up an old thread.

Just came across it, as i was lookin for an answer too.

Open the cue in mp3directcut. 
Move the selector (dotted yellow vertical line) a little bit past the cue point that marks the end of the first song and the beginning of the second song.  The cue point will change colors from brown to orange - orange tells you that this is the cue point you are currently editing. 
Click "edit". 
Move the selector to any point before or after the cue point you are editing.
Click "Set Begin". 
Click "Set End" (without moving the selector anymore). 
Click "Cut" (without moving the selector anymore). 
A new "tweaked" cue point should be created. 
Repeat for all cue points you want to edit. 
Save as a project or a cue sheet.
(The title, album, artist info should all be retained.)

many thanks for your response! although i gave up on this after getting no responses, i may have a need for it again in the future, so i'll keep your helpful instructions on hand.

out of curiosity, did you find this somewhere or figure it out yourself?

thanks again!
