[slinkelist] Missing Discs

[Brian L Hunt]

Just to ask the obvious, why do you care which slots they were in? That's
the beauty of CDJ. You can get it to search all the slots that are empty as
far as it is concerned. So put the CDs in any empty slot and tell it to
search. Yes it does get a bit out of sync with a lot of swapping. So once in
a while tell it to search every slot and take the wife out to dinner while
it does it.
