Default Sync 3 displaying wrong/changed MP3 tag info.

Hello,



Has anyone noticed that occasionally the information that is displayed about an MP3 file is incorrect or partially incorrect? I have yet to identify a specific pattern here, as I haven't had time to experiment with it. What I have seen so far:



Artist: BANNERS Displayed as: The Banner

Artist: 24 Gone Displayed as: 20/40 something something (I don't remember what)



There have been other songs displayed with wrong tag info, even after I went back and verified the tags were correct. None of the files have non-alphabetical characters in their filenames or tags. All of the files are on an error-free 32GB flash drive, formatted as FAT32. All of the songs play fine, but not all of them have album art.

There is a known problem with Gracenote, not sure if it is affecting your tag display though. Next Sync 3 update may address the issue.

It appears it was Gracenote. Disabling it fixed most of the issues, with the exception of Gladiator not grouping properly with the other soundtracks. It shows up as "Soundtracks" rather than "Sound Tracks". Not wure what that's all about. Maybe a corrupt tag. I'll try removing them all and readding them. To fix box sets, I simply changed the track numbers from 1-11 and 1-10 to 101-111 and 201-210. Fixed things nicely. For those who use MP3Tag, it's a tag to tag conversion on the TRACK field using this...%discnumber%$num(%track%,2).
