Ok thanks just waht i thought, and one more reason why I hate iTunes.

Yes I think its the values of the iTunes Sound Check. iTunes stores them in the comments field.

If I remember correctly that is from iTunes.

I believe your right. I did open my library in WMP.I have disable it now Thanks.

Is it common for the comment section to automatically populate random 0000 and numbers? or is that form WMP also??

It's a bit more complicated: http://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index.p ... w_computer

On the other hand most tags are stored in the files so just copying the music might be enough: http://www.mediamonkey.com/sw/webhelp/f ... erties.htm

No clue

mm4 is beta version yet you might be getting some issues from that.

but your triple images for album art i think might just be ipod or itunes. for that type of help check
with nohitter151 or i think lowlander might have some tips on that too.

there are others that use ipod but those two seem to be the ones in the forum the most and nohitter151 wrote mediamonkeys book on how to use ipods with monkey.

Hello
I’m a week old new lifetime member and I have to say i wish I had known about MM a month ago. I love the program and the extras the community makes .I've made the mistake of using iTunes to re work my 13000 songs. If I didn't need it for my iPhone I would be completely rid of iTunes. Ok I have a few questions. First my setups are XP machine (sever soon)and 2 win7 laptops. MM4 v1349 all with the same library files.

So here are my some of my issues that I need help with.
I want to edit on my laptop then move them to the other to PC’s. Can I copy the DB file from laptop 1 after editing is complete then update the DB as changes are made. Is this the correct method?
I’ve used MM to tag all of my mp3 with album art then moved the library to each machine. Now I have 3 copies of the album art in the each mp3 on 1 laptop. Why would this happen. Is it ITunes, and If I use art tagger will it get rid of these extra pictures? Also how would I keep them from coming back?
Also these same files have a bunch of numbers in the comment section of each file. I have tried to delete them but they come back also.
I try to use MB Picard last night not sure how to use it. But I did notice 4 lines of itunes comment is this my issue? Again how do I stop this?

Thanks for the help in advanced
