Tips & Tricks
Select only one plugin for each type of media. For example, to import
MP3 files on a computer where you have both MusicMatch Jukebox
and Windows Media Player installed, select only one of the two
plugins.
You can select only one plugin at a time. If you have more than one
media type, select one plugin and import the media for that plugin.
Then select another plugin and import the media for that plugin.
