I add the directory where all my music is and it starts adding mp3's but when it gets to 535 everytime. It stops. I can click cancel but for some reason it wont go past that number. Whats the deal? BTW i have a few .wma and .mpgs in there. Doubt thats the problem though

Track 535 might have a lot of zeros at the beginning of the file and Mp3tag will take a while to read the tag.
