iPod question

When I transfer my music to my iPod, I get a lot of music with similar artist titles. For example, in the listing I might have something like this:

Linkin Park
linkin park
LinkinPark

Prior to using an iPod, I used TagScanner as my music tagger. Is there a 'smarter' one that will make these adjustments so that I won't have those problems with my iPod?

EDIT: Please don't suggest iTunes, for it is the Anti-Christ.

Well you could do it manually... should take long...

There's no way I'm doing that manually. All those songs would be oldies by the time I finished. :lol:

Hahh actually I would like to know of a program to because I also experience this.

Hmm...I thought I would have had some quick responses on this one since I'm sure it annoys lots of people. :huh: *continues looking*

Hi,

I have programed a free utility that help you normarize Artist Title.
You can download it from http://www.jodix.com/downloads/Jodix_ID3_normarizer.rar.

Download and unzip it. It's very simple and hsa no help files. But it works.

I will add more functions in the program. If you guys have any cool ideas, pelase feel free to let me know.

I use ml_ipod for winamp. http://www.winamp.com/plugins/details.php?id=138888

Just open up the Media Library and right click the item and choose edit item's information and rename the Artist or whatever you want to make them fall under the same artist/album.

Same as me...in winamp I can tell if they're the same name or not, if not select all the tracks by that artist, go to edit, and mass change the artist name. :)
Then when I transfer to my iPod it has the proper tags.:happy:

I use winamp itself to tag.
Just add the music to your medialibrary and edit there.

But that only allows you to edit one at a time. Who wants to do that? :wacko:

you can use Itunes to change multiple files @ once.

highlight more than one then edit.

I use winamp! You can highlight more than one file, and then mass edit it, give all the files same artist, whatever.

i use itunes...

Sorry a little late, if using iTunes as I dont' want to use multiple music applications, is there a way to like for example just delete all the 'Album Names' or do I have to do that one by one? Like on my iPod I only want the Song/Artist to be listed not the Album Title

You can do that with TagScanner. I edited about 5,000 mp3's in about 15 secs. :)

Negative. They all have the title of the artist identical in Winamp Media Library, but when uploaded to the iPod, they're still displayed in several different ways. :ermm:

Alright I shall give the program a try. Thanks for the information.

Edit: Oh wow the program works wonders for my Music, thanks again.
