For some reason when I use my Sandisk in my car a 2012 Kia Forte via USb, When I click the info tab, song, album, all come up...but not artist name
Is there a field I need to add?
For example, I have Prince, Little Red Corvette. In the metatag I see Prince & the Revolution as Artist and Album Artist, when in the car...nope, states none found
This is no biggie, a minor irritant, but if someone knows how to have it show up...I'd love to learn something new
What kind of files are these? MP3s?
Perhaps the car player only reads V1 tags - these do not have a field for ALBUMARTIST.
The field is called ALBUMARTIST - so if you have a field "ALBUM ARTIST" (with a blank) or "BAND" it may lead to this error.
Which tag versions do you read, write and delete? Perhaps you still have APE tags in the files that have not been updated as you do not treat them at all.
Otherwise it looks like a problem of the implementation on the car stereo.
So set all tag types to read and delete
but just the ID3 ones to write
It may shorten the procedure if you only treat the files that actually have APE tags.
Set a filter:
%_tag% HAS APE
This should show only the files with APE tags.
