Guys,

With SYNC and my MP3 player, it will only play ~ 30% of my songs, Apparrantly the rest are Not Tagged?? How the heck do I Tag them??? It's Really annoying to only hear the same 15 songs...

Thanks!

Very easy to use and it allows you to embed cover art if you have the Electronics Package it will display it while the song is playing. I used it to clean up all the tags of my 1TB MP3 library.


Tip: If you do embed album covers, reduce them to 200x200 pixels (about 10-25kb) because if you don't the MP3 gets very large.

 

Wow, Thanks! Hope theres a Step by step, I'm still kinda new to this whole MP3 thing....

 

Are you using an ipod? With one, the very minimum you need the artist, track and genre listed.

 

There is a help section and forum on the site that will get you started.

The advice I give to others that are just really starting an MP3 collection is to start right away formatting all your MP3s in the same manner and in the same library. It's easy to do when it's small and makes it less of a chore than waiting until it gets very large.

Personally my collection is divided into folders by Artist, then by Album.

Then every song is named by "song number - song name" even though the "tag" contains all the info; artist, album, song number, genre, etc. The reason I do this is because when you try to jam all of the info into the track title, you will sometimes run into a problem with Windows and long filenames.

Basically, pick a format that you like, and stick to it. Good luck.
