Hi Tony,
I think I have an answer for you....I've been copying from my Centrals to my new Empeg player lately. So one feature of jEmplode that you might find very interesting is the "Tools", "Edit Config.ini". Of course, I'm sure that you've used this 1,000 times when connected to your Empeg. But when I was connected to my Central, I tried pulling up the associated config.ini file for it, and was surprised how much information is in there....Here's an excerpt of mine...

[now_playing]
name=Afterlife (Live) (Disc 2)
[cddb]
ids_checked=1
[license]
microsoft=1
[time]
ntp_sync=1
offset=0
[encoding]
bitrate=mp3:bitrate=256
[display]
caching=1
visual_names=1
brightness_off=57
brightness_normal=86
contrast_normal=68
.

.
So would you say that the 4th line down is what you're looking for? I don't have CDs waiting to be looked up because I am connected to broadband all the time. So I think if you doctored your config.ini file to match that setting, I would think you'd achieve what you're looking to do...I'd be curious if that works, thanks.

Randy
