Car Menu Music Player - ID3 Tags

Hello,
I am using the car menu v2.6 on my E51. I am wondering which ID3-Tag version is supported. Does anybody know that?
What about v2.8 beta, which versions are supported here?
Thanks,
Jones

Hi Diavonex. Yes I was aware of this option.
Subsequently I have done a litle research and downloaded a music app called "Track 8" which has a much clearer interface (larger type) and the abillity to change the background colour to dark or light.
This is much more readable in the car in bright light, and much better at night too.
You can also turn off auto-lock within the application, which is great, as it doesn't affect other apps.
Although this app is really only an interface sitting on top of the music app, it offers a much better experience
in my opinion that the stock player which seems to have devolved rather than evolved.

  • How can I stop the display dimming when plugged into a powersupply. Cannot read playlist in car using music player.

    My new ipod seems to dim after a short time, even when plugged into a power supply, unlike my previous ipod, which used to stay illuminated
    when plugged into the car stereo and external power
    Now in order to see the playlist I have to swipe or touch the home button, using the music player. However using  a GPS app, the screen stays
    fully illuminated......as it should!
    Is this normal now for playing music?
    Also, the new grey on white menu display for music is very hard to read in the car in bright daylight.......unlke the old white on black. Nothing I
    can do about that sadly except complain to apple directly :-(

  • ID3 Tags Not Being Recognized

    Okay, so I have a problem and I am racking my brain trying to figure it out.
    Itunes isn't recognizing some of my music's ID3 tags. Worst part is I used Itunes to convert every song I have to ID3 v 2.4, but there's still a handful that aren't been recognized. I used Media Monkey to aid in my tagging. For further pain listen to this. I also just updated from Itunes 6 or whatever to 7.4.1.1.1.1 or whatever the **** it's at now, and it went from about 7 albums to like 30 that itune's won't recognize the ID3 tags for.
    For more help look at this image. Showing an example of how all my songs have and Artist, Album, and more set to them, but ITunes won't pick it up. Any idea how to fix this guys?

    Hi guys. If your music is in MP3 format, try downloading this program: http://www.download.com/Mp3-Tag-Tools/3000-2141_4-10106717.html
    Then click file > open directory. Find the folder that holds your music and click open. Make sure 'recurse subdirectories' is ticked so that it opens everything within the folder. This can take quite a while if you have a lot of music.
    Once all your files have loaded, press Ctrl+A to select all of your music files and then press F7. This duplicates whatever is in your ID3V2.X tags onto the ID3V1.1 tags.
    For iTunes to take notice of any tag changes you make in this program, the file either has to be played or re-uploaded into iTunes which can also take a while depending on how much music you have, but once you've done that, iTunes should start recognising your tags.
    Hope this helps!

  • ID3 Tags disappears when MP3 is copied

    Can anyone help me with this? This problem only recently started after I upgraded. I'm using iTunes 7.0.2 Mac and when I import a regular CD it finds the ID3 tag info and imports fine. However, when i copy the MP3 files to another computer (my computer at work) the song plays fine but all the tag info is gone. This never happened before. Isn't the tag info saved in the MP3 file? What should I do to fix this?

    I found a solution. Personally I think there's a bug with iTunes 7.0.2 (at least on my machine) whereby iTunes adds tag information to the library when ripping a CD but doesnt save it to the newly created mp3 file. So when you copy the mp3 file it shows up on another computer with no tag info.
    I tried different things but what worked was to go to the computer that ripped the CD and that showed the tag info and select the Advanced pull-down menu and "Convert ID3 tags". I chose version 2.3. I did that to all the mp3s and iTunes saved the tag info to the file because after doing that I can now see the tag info when the mp3 file is copied to another machine.
    I selected all the mp3s in my library and did the same thing just in case.
    Perhaps the next upgrade will fix this bug.

  • ID3 tag information not showing up on imported files

    I've only had my iPod for a couple of days and I'm working right now on importing all my computer's mp3 files into iTunes, using "add folder to library." Most of the time it's going fine, but for some files the ID3 information will not show up for no apparent reason when it is definitely there (it shows up fine in Winamp etc)--sometimes it will even be only a few songs in a folder with the others working! I have no idea what to do, and when I search the forums all I can find is other people having the same problem but no answers. Someone help please?

  • Cyrillic ID3 tags in Music Player

    I have a n82 and love it, but I tried to loaded a cd album which contains Russian ID3, but when i try to view the artist,song,album names in the phones built-in music player all I see is weird characters as though my phone doesn't support non-Unicode text. I know for a fact that it displays files with Russian taext in the file name just fine and writes and read in Russian just fine but the ID3 tags are a bit tricky for it.
    What can I do to make the music player display Russian ID3 tags properly?

    as i know, sans serif doesnt provide unicode mapping. have you tried to change to arial unicode or others eg. code2000??
    I'm using arial unicode ms to show japanese symbols,and it should work for cyrillic too,since cyrillic is also mapped in arial unicode. font changing is also affect in all app (i suppose), including java app.
    my N73 ME APAC (indonesia) is only able to display latin chars,n by changing the font (that is supports unicode one), now my phone is able to show japanese symbol (including ID3 tag in music player).

  • Music Player with ID3 Tag Feature

    Any application that has ID3 tag feature? I can't stay in front of my PC all the time to change and organize all my music files properly. I prefer organize them via my 5800, so, I can do it anytime. Yes, 5800 has its own 'song details' feature. But it's only temporary. If I formatted my memory card, all the details are gone, and I have to organize them again!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I think you're missing the point here. Of course when you format the memory card, all data is deleted. Hence it would make sense to perform a backup of your memory card contents onto your computer before formatting the memory card. Easiest way to do this is to copy everything from the memory card (i.e. displayed as Removable Disk in Windows) to your hard drive on your computer. Then when the format is complete, copy the songs back to your memory card. That way, all the ID3 tags for songs that you modified on your phone will be restored to the memory card.  
    If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

  • (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.

    (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
    I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
    I don't sync  music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
    I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
    I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
    I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
    Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
    When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
    Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them.  Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view.  I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again. 
    These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes.  My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues. 
    Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.

    Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

  • Zen mx 16gb player not recognising id3 tags.

    ,zen mx 6gb player not recognising id3 tags.I recently bought a zen mx and so far can not get it to recognise over half of my mp3's id3 tags. All of the files are drm free. All of the unrecognised files will play but get stuck in the unknown artist unknown album catagory on the player. I have tried retagging the files in several diffrent tagging softwares and upgraded my player to the newest firmware and nothing seems to work. I had a creative vision m 30gb before I had this player and it never had this problem. I contacted customer support but they didnt seem to have any idea what an Id3 tag was and offered no relavent advice other then upgrade your firmware witch was upsetting to say the least. If anyone has any idea how to fix this that would be awesome. I feel like I just wasted almost 80 dollars.

    0Re: zen mx 6gb player not recognising id3 tags. It's just aggravating because I used to talk the company up all the time. The older creative zen's where awesome. They played every file that I had with the exclusion of open source formats like ogg witch is understandable because I'm sure that there is not much demand for that.
    I wouldn't be half as upset as I am if I felt like the support people where offering decent suggestions or even an explanation of what may be wrong. I mean are there certain id3 tags that are not recognised? At least try to explain why it may not work to me so that I can fix the problem without having to re-tag every cd that I have purchased since I was fourteen. I don't think I'm going to buy anything from them again until I see that the quality of there products is getting better. Maybe I should write a review on Amazon to warn people away, after all the majority of the music that its having problems with was downloaded from Amazon.com.
    Btw if your haning the same problem as me kid3 is a program that will retag your files to this players satisfaction. Not that helps if you have a large volume of music but its at least something.

  • [SOLVED] ID3 tags not registering on MP3 Player

    I just got a new MP3 player, and some of the ID3 tags that I've set on my music don't register. I have some other songs that were set on a Windows computer; these show up perfectly find. Every tag editor I've ever used has this problem.
    What is a way to convert the ID3 tags into a format that my mp3 player (a coby MP826-8G) will be able to understand?
    EDIT: Duh, I was using id3v2 instead of id3v1. Apparently most hardware music players don't read id3v2 yet.

    indeed, the tracks do have both v1.x and v2.x tags. Obviously, iTunes only accepts v1.1 tags. v2.x tags or mp3, who have both tags attached, will not be displayed in iTunes.
    I have deleted the v2.x from the problem mp3-files using the "mp3tag" - tool. After re-importing the files into iTunes,
    everything was fine.

  • ID3 tags and itunes refusing to add music to library

    As my music collection is growing, I decided to organize it a bit more and fill in the different ID3 tags in windows.
    I have emptied my itunes library before I did all this, and after changing the ID3 tags I added the different albums back to itunes.
    However, for some reason itunes does not want to import several albums anymore, while they do play in windows media player. Furthermore, itunes refuses in many cases to make use of the new ID3 tags I made. Even after uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, itunes seems to remember my settings and the ID3 tags the different MP3s had before.
    Anyone a clue what is happening here? Has it someting to do with the new version of itunes, or is it something else?
    ciao, Gregorius

    Hey, first of all, thanks for your help, but I'm still in problems.
    I have noticed that itunes imports the music files before I alter the ID3 tags (from backup files). However, as soon as I try to add the same file to my itunes library after I have edited the ID3 file (via windows itself), itunes does not add the file to its library anymore. This is happening to a considerable amount of my music. When I try to play the same files in windows mediaplayer, they play without a problem, so I guess the problem is with itunes.
    Somebody can please help me out, because I like to be in control of my music, and not itunes,
    adios Gregorius

  • ID3 Tags and Music Sort

    My mp3 ID3 tags are all messed up here and there. As I fix them in MediaSOurce, the "file" stays where it is and cannot be moved to where it belongs (in the appropriate folder). Any idea on how to move files around that are on the player?

    Not sure if this is the same thing the OP is talking about, but I have a similar problem with my Zen Xtra. Mediasource doesn't seem to want to let me edit tag info (except track number) for music that's on the player- which gets annoying if I'm trying to correct the genre for something or combine entries for "Smashing Pumpkins" and "The Smashing Pumpkins." The only workaround I've found is to edit the tags for the files on my hard dri've, then re-transfer them to the player, which I'm usually too lazy to do. Is there some more efficient way to do this?

  • ID3 Tags, Organizer & Player & M

    Description
    I name my mp3's for example
    0 W. K. Mahler - Freedom - W. K. Mahler.mp3
    Your ID3 Tag reader reads the above as
    Track 0.mp3
    Track 0.mp3 is exactly what is read in the organizier and player (the most updated versions for Audigy 2 ZS).
    Do you honestly expect me to go in and edit 9 gigabytes of audio files? No.
    How do I/we work around this?
    BTW,
    There really is no competition regarding your easy install cards (PCI) here on Cape Cod, MA. USA. Other than integrated audio (and I never find your products intergrated.) ...Do you make intergrated audio in desktops?
    Finally,
    At least one dozen independent/small and large makers of audio players for PC/MAC are including decode/encode and or just play of .shn and .flac files.
    Do you there at Creative Labs already have "codecs" to be downloaded and installed or are you planning on a major upgrade for audio format compatability. How about video as well?

  • How do i stop my ipod touch from reverting back to the default music player everytime i get back in my car?

    The only place I use my Ipod Touch is in my car that has an iPod connection and the steering wheel controls, but I mostly listen to audio books with the audible app. Everytime I get in my car instead of the iPod just picking up where it left off with the audible app it picks up playing whatever was last listened to with the default music player. How can I stop this? Although sometimes it will pick up with the audible app where it stopped when I last used the car (the time I spend with it not playing in the car doesn't seem to make a difference.). Just a little side question is there anyway to get rid of the newstand app, safari, messaging, facetime, gamecenter and all those other app that apple forces upon it's users?

    There is nothing yo can do to return to the app you want.
    You can't delete the apps that came with the iPod. Except for NewsbStand, you can put the apps you do not want into one folder and move it to the last screen
