![]() I read around a little to try to find an answer and the only real thing that I could come up with is that WMP isn't necessarily writing ID3 tags but updating metainfo in its own separate database. The following info is to be taken with a grain of salt (note all of the mights in here) as information on WMP varies. I use WMP as my main player as I like it and it does what I want it to with little fuss as long as you know how to set your files up. This is kind of something that I have dealt with as well and I ended up having the same problem (and same solution) that you did. I'm hoping I'm just missing something stupidly obvious and someone can point it out I'd like to refrain from installing WMP on my server just to test this theory though. but I don't know why Tag&Rename can do it over wireless without issue and WMP can't do it over ethernet. My only thought is an issue with writing to files over a network share. Ideas as to why this could be happening? It is pissing me off because it looks like the files are fine (because they look fine in the WMP library) but when I try to access the files from a different device, some of them are a complete mess! None of the files are write-protected (as evidenced by the fact that I can change them with Tag&Rename). Now I have already "fixed" the majority of my music in Tag&Rename, this is just to get it cleaned up for Media Center and to get album art in all of it, etc. some albums it will update perfectly, some it will leave a single file unchanged, some half the songs are wrong. Unfortunately, it does not do it to ALL of them. ![]() Supposedly that means it should be applying all of the changes to the WMP library to the mp3 tags. I have been updating the albums and then, once I've made changes, clicked "Apply Media Information Changes" and let that run. I have disabled automatic information fetching. The computer accessing the music runs Windows 7 with WMP12. Access to the files is done on the Guest account with full read/write access. Having an absolute nightmare of a time trying to get WMP to write my mp3 tags correctly.Īll of my music is stored on my file server (running Windows Home Server). ![]()
