Sansa Fuze 8gb organization issue

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 

Been a long time since I've been on Head-Fi....

 

Well I use Media Monkey to convert everything to FLAC from CD then have a second set go to OGG for my Fuze.  Well when I look at the folders and files on my Fuze it all looks in order, however when I go to play them things seem to be all over the place.  An example:

 

Fugazi > 13 Songs > Waiting that is what I see in the folder view on my computer

3 > .... this is what I see on my player.

 

Any insight?  Have used the wrong tagging?

Have you tried auto-tag by filename and synchronizing tags?

99% sure that is because of bad tags. Examine your audio metadata with a program to see what's up. I'm mostly a linux user, but I guess winamp can help you with that job.

 

If you can't find out what's happening, send me one of those messy ogg files and I'll try to examine it.

I am a Arch Linux user actually.  I just rip my music to my desktop which has better hardware in the first place and a larger hard drive storage.

You could use EasyTAG with your Arch computer, for checking or updating your tags, it can search for tags manually or automatically with CDDB.

EasyTag is a nice program, but I had troubles with the tags inserted by it: I sent a file to sansafix (at sandisk support forums) and he found some metadata out of the standard in track numbers or disc number in some flac examples I gave to him. Anyway he updated sandisk's official firmware to support this situation (I should check sansa fuze forums for more info, this was a few months ago and I don't remember the exact details). Anyway you can use metaflac to check the file info.

I didn't notice any problems, in my settings Easytag write both, flac tags and ID3 tags in flac files, and my Fuze is running Rockbox.
