Sorry if this question has been answered... but The comments that I put in MP3Tag aren't showing up in Virtual DJ. Anyone know if there is a setting that I need to change? or another field that it may be going to?

You have to look which tag-field your software uses for this comment or whether it uses a tagfield at all and not uses it's own database instead
Look for a file which has a comment you can see, load the file into Mp3Tag and have a look with the extended tag-view ALT+T whether you can see the content in a field.
If yes use this field for comments in Virtual DJ.

Just a little research to support what @poster has already described:

> Hi I'm having real problems getting Mp3tag to write the comments tag for some DJ software I use. I'll try an explain and hopefully someone can help. The DJ software (Virtual DJ Pro 4.1r2) has limited tag reading, it can only read artist, title and comments. I wanted to have the genre show up in the VDJ software so I've copied the genre into the comments tag for all of my Mp3s. Everything looks fine in Mp3tag (all of the fields are populated as I need them) but when I look at the comments tag …

You may also want to consider this, if your files are already in the VirtualDJ database:
After a file is loaded into the database, meta data is taken only from that library. Any later changes or additions to a file made in an external tag editor are ignored.
However, there is a procedure to update the VirtualDJ database to include external changes. It's called **Batch -\> Reload Tags** and was posted here by **@LyricsLover**. See his reply linked below for a screen shot . Scroll down, towards the end of a long thread: **[Set rating for import in VirtualDJ](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/set-rating-for-import-in-virtualdj/60352)**

That did the trick… I didn’t realize they were already tagged. I have been through hades and back trying to make a new system work that doesn’t have all the dups.
Thank you all!
