    title in brackets/not shown correctly

    Hello!
    I just found out that the BS5 does show some of the titels not correctly; they are shown like

    1-(title)-(artist)-(album) -> thats like the file on the hdd; I don't have an idea what went wrong because I can't find any difference in comparison to the other titles which are shown correctly;

    I guess that there are 20-30 titles wrong out of almost 3000

    Do you have an idea how to get them shown in the correct way?

    thanks elmar 

    And maybe someone can tell me: Some files are to be found under the directory named after the artist and some named after the album - there is no obvious procedure how the files are sorted

    I have written a process down here in this forum a long time ago. Involves a bit of messing around but get results.

    The key - and I assume you are running everything as a WMA file is breifly as follows:-

    1. Load up Windows Media Player (10 or 11 is probably idea)

    2. Edit all the tags as you see fit. There are a number of fields which are usually redundant on the WMP which Beoplayer actually uses.

    3. Rescan WMP for media, then close WMP and Beoplayer. Delete all the *.IDX and *.DAT files in the C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\BeoMediaDatabase directory and those in the Backup directory.

    4. Re-Scan with Beoplayer.

    All should be how you wish it to be. There should be more detailed instructions in my earlier BS5 threads

    Hello!

    Just found out that iTunes does not change the id tags; the program itself shows the tracks in the correct order - like I have built up my library; I don't know why but those changes have not been entered into the id tags of the files; so with windows I can click right and enter titel, artist...; re-copy the files to BS5 and everything is fine; on my mac I don't have such opportunities without installing a new program;

    does anyone has an idea to make iTunes save/change the id tag?

    greetings elmar
