Admiral Ross Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I wish it was that easy. My MP3 player is a reall pain in the A$$. Making a playlist on the fly with mine is hell. I have a Creative Labs Zen USB 2.0. Paid way too much for it. At the time it was worth $324. Now, it can go to the scrap heap! It's permament home is the car. My fiance is getting one for xmas. It's unbelieve how much loot you spend on women, woman, wife.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators rridgely Posted October 26, 2006 Moderators Share Posted October 26, 2006 I have a rio carbon MP3 player and it lets me build playlists in the program(rio music manager which surprisingly doesn't suck). What program are you using to transfer music? Even WMP can build playlists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 26, 2006 Moderators Share Posted October 26, 2006 If it supports standard playlists like .M3U you could make those in Winamp, Foobar2000, Tag Frontend w/Tag, etc. If it doesn't you could try to alphabetically+alphanumerically name the files on the dap like this: ACDC-01-Thunderstruck.mp3 ACDC-02-Fire_Your_Guns.mp3 Dream_Theater-01-New_Millennium.mp3 Fates_Warning-04-The_Eleventh_Hour.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFiresInTheSky Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 alphanumerically is that even a word? thats almost how i have them labeled right now. I have a rio carbon MP3 player and it lets me build playlists in the program(rio music manager which surprisingly doesn't suck). What program are you using to transfer music? Even WMP can build playlists. NOTHING! all i do is open up "my computer" and go to G drive then i drag all the music into the music folder i uninstalled WMP and im never installing that so thats out of the option. let me know if anyone knows of a program that can do that and synch music to the mp3 player also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators rridgely Posted October 26, 2006 Moderators Share Posted October 26, 2006 Winamp can connect to MP3 players too. Last time I checked they were even working to get it to work with ipods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators rridgely Posted October 27, 2006 Moderators Share Posted October 27, 2006 PC world says the player is quote: Not USB mass-storage class. Doesn't that mean it cant just have files transfered to it like a portable drive? WMP is actually pretty good to use for an MP3 player but if you really are against it then I guess you could use Mediamonkey or winamp. My MP3 player will even sync with Itunes but I don't like itunes so I don't use it. You may want to try that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New_Age Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Aaron, You have to realize that most MP3 players do however make a playlist but not in terms of what you are wanting. Does your MP3 player make a playlist out of folders as in goin by order of Artist? I had an MP3 plyer and yes the HDD in it finally gave out and now I'm back to using a CD/MP3 support CD player but mine did create a playlist goin by Artist and the type of music. Some are just programmed different. I even wanted my songs formed in a certain way but could I... NO! P.S. - Don't ever just drag and drop any songs in the file to where the songs are kept. That can easily mess things up. Use WMP10. Try using Winamp if WMP10 gives problems.

TheFiresInTheSky Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 i dont really understand why it would give problems. ive been doing it all my life and so has everyone i know. its basically the same thing as a flash drive even though what rridgely found said differently. i tried winamp but there was no easy way to import a playlist and play it or select songs i specifically chose for my mp3 player. looks like WMP and winamp are out of the question. does anyone know if foobar supports this?

New_Age Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Have you even checked the site for any Software? My MP3 player from Philips worked like a charm with Winamp or.. WMP.

Admiral Ross Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 If it supports standard playlists like .M3U you could make those in Winamp, Foobar2000, Tag Frontend w/Tag, etc.Tag Frontend w/tag is that a tag editor? I need to do some tagging myself around 2700 songs. What is the easiest way to do that many songs. One of my problems with my mp3 player is finding the damn music to begin with. Then making the playlist is another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators rridgely Posted October 27, 2006 Moderators Share Posted October 27, 2006 Best tag editor right here: http://www.mp3tag.de/en/ That program saved me not hours but DAYS when I decided to organize my music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 27, 2006 Moderators Share Posted October 27, 2006 Mp3tag is alright. Tag Frontend w/Tag I've used for years. The only thing though before committing to the changes Tag makes you'd best damn sure use the Test mode option to see what the changes will be first otherwise someone's gonna be pissed! If you do decide on using Tag I can post my configuration files which are full of different ways that files could be named, tagged, etc., it beats building them from scratch, and the tagging configuration file is pre-configured for most audio formats. I'd suggest Mp3tag as rridgely did, it's periodically updated, and it has a GUI which shows everything that's about to happen plus it can mass tag and rename files. Also don't forget Foobar2000 Audio Player is also capable of mass tagging and renaming files too, along with fixing MP3's, and applying or removing Replaygain.

I'm looking at it right now.. never tried that one but i seem to like shuffleplay, its freeware and its really easy to use. id consider it one of the best. another good one ive heard of would be dr. tag edit: forgot to add that the software on the samsung site was just a download of WMP.

Mp3tag can remove non-compliant tags in MP3s that cause problems with some players/hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
