Getting missing track numbers!

Post by auzins »

Hope that there's a way to get missing track numbers - I have a number of albums ripped into mp3 format. Unfortunately, quite a few are missing track numbers and so are arranged alphabetically, not in original album order. Is there an easy fix for this? (A friend suggested that I could manually rename each track, basing the order on the file creation date/time info - but on Windows XP I can't seem to access this data!)
Thanks for your help!

You may want to try downloading the latest beta and using the tag from amazon option. It's pretty cool and it should address your problem.

Is 2.2.2.780 the latest version, or is there another?

Hi, Thanks for the suggestion. I'm probably not clueing in to how to do what you're suggesting, but I thought that that's how I should do it.
Just cant't seem to get it to work though. Is my version the right one - it's the latest on the website.

so its the right version you have.
make sure MM is allowed to access the internet. maybe you run a firewall in silent mode which denies MM to get data from amazon?

You will need the latest version from the beta forum (currently MM 2.3 beta 5). This is not available from the mediamonkey homepage itself.

Once beta 5 is installed you right click on a song and select Auto-Tag from Amazon.

A word of warning: Beta version may contain bugs, as such they are only intended for people that one help test the program.
