Thanks, Robert. I will give that a try. I didn't know you could tag albums
with windows explorer.
Just how is it done if I might ask?
I'd sure hate to have to retag all of my albums, though. That would be a lot
of work. I probably have over 400.
Perhaps I could just start with the ones I want to put onto the icon, but
what also might be nice is a way to edit the tags within the icon, itself.

Hi Paul and List,
I have found that the Icon really likes the taggs that are created in the
file properties of windows explorer. Just for an experiment, pick one of
your albums that the Icon is not seeing correctly and re-enter the tags
using windows explorer. You will then need to delete the album from the
icon, rebuild the catalog with the album gone, put the album back and build
the catalog a final time. See if this album now appears tagged correctly.

Hi, guys.
There appears to be a problem with the music catalog feature of the player.
I loaded probably 20-30 albums onto my icon in the music folder.
I ran update the catalog. When looking at artist, I have one which is
unknown, which contains 230 songs from different albums.
Many of the songs are either from a Celtic woman album or various new
Christy minstrels albums.
I went to my music folder on my hard drive and brought up an album or two
where I recognized the song title. Sure enough, all fields are filled in;
title, artist, album and genre.
I searched in icon by album instead of artist. Ten albums out of 30 were
there with another unknown album category with 230 titles where icon
couldn't determine that there was an album tag.
Again, I checked out two albums and the album title was properly tagged.
I thought it was odd when listening to the demo of the player that people
would have so many unknown artists, but I am seeing the same thing and I
know my tags are properly set.
I use a device to stream music to my stereo from my computer called a cd3o
media player. Music must be tagged properly for the device to allow me to
search by album, artist, genre or title; so I know my tags for these
particular albums are set correctly.
I'd be happy to send albums to those who might want to look at this to see
what is going on here.
But as far as I can tell, all tags are there.
Thanks.
