I knew there had to be an easier way. Robert, you're a life saver. I have
several things from burned CD's etc that I have to fill in completely if I ever
want to have them sorted right, and I have been dreading the task. You just
cut it down by hours.
Thanks for sharing that,
Jenny

Hi,
I would add one thing to Jenny's excellent instructions for using windows
explorer to tag audio files. You can select all of the files in the folder with
control-a and then go into properties and fill in all of the items that are
true for all of the files such as artist, album name and so on. This means that
you don't have to repeat this information for each file in the folder. You
still need to go to the properties of each file and fill in the unique
information like track number and song title.
I also agree with Jenny that you may want to wait until the release comes out.

the next release contains a files mode that will, indeed, allow you to
access things according to the folder they're contained in. Also, the tagging
engine is much improved, so you may want to wait and see how the new release
does with your catalog before going through and retagging your files. As far
as how to do it though--you have to do it file by file. Highlight the file you
want to retag in Windows Explorer and press Alt + Enter to get to the file
properties. Then, press Control + Tab to get to the Summary page. If you're
in Advanced Mode, you'll get a list of the tagged information which you can
edit. If you're in simple Mode, you'll see only the title and will need to tab
to the Advanced Button and press the Spacebar to activate it.
Then, simply edit your information, and tag to the OK Button when you're
done.

Hi, guys.
I don't think the music player can do this, but if not I'd like to
request the ability to do the following:
Each of my albums are in separate folders under music All Beatles albums
are in their own folders under Beatles, all Elton John albums under Elton john,
in their own folders, etc.
Right now, I can search by artist and bring up the Beatles. What I want
to then do is to have Icon show me all albums by the Beatles.
I want to select a specific album and play it.
Right now, It appears it can only show me all beatles songs.
I suppose I could go through a do a play list for each album, but that
would take a lot of work<grin>.
Thanks.
