0 Fedr0 Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 It's actually a problem with the id3tag v2 Winamp uses. When on Winamp, press ALT+3, then ALT+2, then ENTER. ALT+3, ALT+T and ENTER again. You have to do this to every file... :( Actually what I told you to do is to delete the id3tag v2 from the file, then update, then copy it from the v1 to the v2 and then update the file again. I sincerly don't know if there's a faster way to do this, never searched for it as far this works I'm happy enough (plus, I registered Tag&Rename, damn I love that tagger). ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mick0142 Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 if it has always done this, it may be an issue with the ID3 tag... right click on one of them, go into file info, and check it out.. if there is an ID3 tag, winamp will use that instead of the file name... hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 KnifeFace Posted July 8, 2002 Author Share Posted July 8, 2002 Originally posted by Fedr0 Is how it's supposed to be AFAIK. So what is your favorite genre: 37.152? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 KnifeFace Posted July 9, 2002 Author Share Posted July 9, 2002 but seriously, is Fedr0 right? Is the genre supposed to be a number in WinXP? Or does any-one know a patch or plug-in for WinAmp, so it will use ID3v2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Fedr0 Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Originally posted by KnifeFace Is the genre supposed to be a number in WinXP? No, man. I meant that the custom Winamp 2 id3tag v2 is recognized as a number in Windows XP. In fact, if you right click and edit the properties of the mp3 in XP you can insert the genre you want.
