If the file(s) selected is an MP3 or Wave file, and it has not been played in OtsTurntables before, it will be checked and processed. For an explanation of what is occurring during processing click here.

Note: The processing of MP3 or Wave files will take a few moments per file, due to data being retrieved, analyzed and stored. This process is a once-off process due to the fact that the calculated information will be stored in an associated .OMX file.

If the file you selected is an Ots Album file that contains multiple items (tracks), you will prompted by a dialog box allowing you to select the items that you would like to load into the playlist. Select the item and click on the OK button.
