10-Strike MP3-Scanner2.1

10-Strike MP3-Scanner is an application you can use to locate all MP3, MP2 and WMA audio tracks in shared drives across the local network, in order to create an inventory with all music and copy them to your computer.

Simple setup and network configuration

It gets installed fast and easy, since there are no special options, prerequisite software products, or third-party offers involved.At startup, it's necessary to specify the computer search mode by instructing the tool to scan the entire network neighborhood, a single IP address, or a range of IP addresses. A timeout can be set too.

Scan LAN hosts to find songs

Once the scanner is over, you can check out a list with all identified audio tracks, including their originating domains and directory paths. 10-Strike MP3-Scanner also shows the total files, scan duration, along with the total files, folder and status (e.g. finished, access denied) of all detected hosts in LAN.

Create playlists and copy music

It's possible to play tracks in your default media player, create M3U playlists from selected files, copy items to the local disk, export the list to an HTML file or plain text document, remove all inaccessible files, as well as use a basic search tool to browse the search results for music by filename, domain or directories.

Configure program settings

Only MP3 tracks are taken into account by default, and you can also include MP2 and WMA files from the settings panel. Additionally, you can change the default playlist extension, as well as create lists with hosts and resources to allow or deny. Help documentation is available, while keyboard shortcuts are supported.

Evaluation and conclusion

Unfortunately, 10-Strike MP3-Scanner hasn't received updates for a long time. Nevertheless, it worked smoothly on modern Windows versions in our tests. It delivers a straightforward solution for finding and copying audio tracks in the local network. CPU and RAM usage was minimal in our tests.
