Sujet reading zip files

Ce topic est ancien et peut contenir des informations obselètes ou incorrectes.

hi, I am using virtual dj8 and I can only load zip files for karaoke videos. I use to be able to drag and load a separate video and audio file on virtual DJ 7 pro does anyone know if there is an option I can use to be able to drag both video and mp3 files instead of just zip files?

If I understand your post correctly, you've got some karaoke tracks that are not zipped? They are separate audio and video files, and you want to play them together?

Why not just zip them, so they are together?

Alternatively I think you'd need to overlay each audio file with each video file by using the video editor. See the manual.

If you mean CDG-Files, then you can load the mp3 to one of the players. The (same named) CDG-File will load automatically with the mp3.

^^ Yes that is correct, they don't need to be zipped as long as they have the same name. Lots of mine are not zipped.

I used to be able to highlight and drag both the Mp3 and the video file to the player but now it won't recognize it or just play the mp3. it's a hassle to zip every file since I have thousands and thousands and I can't do it on the fly when people request the song. i was using VDJ 7 pro and i didn't have this problem. thanks for answering my question

I tried that. the music will play but the words and the karaoke guide won't appear on the screen. sometimes it just won't read it at all and I'll get an error message.

Do you drag them from within virtualdj?
VirtualDJ must know about the files, so they have to be added to the virtualdj database first.
After that you can still use explorer/finder to drag them.

no. I use an external hard drive and they are not loaded on the VDJ database. i usually open a file from windows, search my hard drive and drag the song to deck 1 or 2 .

You can right-click the drive within virtualdj and select add to database.
After that vdj knows which mp3 files have a matching cdg file, so even when you use windows explorer to drag after, it will correctly detect the cdg and show it.

tried that, it still shows an ERROR message on the player. maybe i did something wrong while adding to DB, but I'll Try it again. Thanks to all of you for answering my question. i apreciate it.
