Sansa View MicroSD + ID3 tags

Hello

The Sansa View fits the ID3 tags of songs on the MicroSD card in the library? I have a few dozen songs on my MicroSD, all the tag using Windows Explorer, but they have all displayed as 'unknown' in the library view.

Thanks for any help.

-Rob

I do not know what version of Windows ID3 writes the tags like, but Sansas prefer ID3v2.3 ISO-8859-1. You can use a program like MP3Tag to edit (and change the version, if necessary) the tags and see if that helps.

  • How can I keep the photo files id3 tagging? (And video files?)

    Hello.

    This question is about id3 tagging files photo (and video?). Probably, it revolves around managing the media too.

    I have tif and jpg files that I took of the old and the new point and shoot cameras. What I'm trying to do, is to have jpg and tif of the originals. Make some changes and have a jpg and tif amendment. So I have 4 files for each image (2 independent is the original and 2 Edition). I want a lossy and lossless for each file.

    I've bothered to fill out somethings in the id3 tagging. When I tried some changes in batches to get the files, id3 tags was empty.

    I use Windows XP SP3 Home Edition 32-bit. I tried to use FormatFactory to an export batch. I use Corel PaintShop Photo Pro X 3 also, who gave the same results.

    In Windows XP: I right click on the file, the Properties tab, I think it's the details. In my view, title, author, subject, keywords, comments. It's the id3 tagging which not copied.

    When I right click and COPY a file, it keeps the id3 tags.

    I really think there's a way to deal with this. Anyone use? Nobody cares? Need scripts and a certain program? I don't think that I would have to pay for it. How professionals and more or less experienced people do it?

    I don't want a markup that is recognized by some programs. I can do that already, but it is too advantageous. I won't tag id3 4 times. I don't want a watermark.

    Are the methods or rules identical for Win Vista, Win7 or Win8? I have 32-bit and 64-bit Vista Home Premium, but have not tried it on there. I have to start the migration of files again. Vista is choose with id3 tagging anyway from what I tried. I keep said that Win7 is similar or the same.

    I thank you very much.

    A place to start...

    When a photo is copied... a new version of the file is created.
    During this process, some software will remove metadata
    in the file properties.

    The only insurance that I can think of would be to make a backup of the
    metadata, then restore the metadata if it is deleted.

    The following freeware has not been updated in a long time, but is
    a proven method to backup metadata.  Also the site
    suggests other alternatives.

  • Sansa fuze + ignores mp3 tags

    Hi guys I just got my sansa fuze + (8 GB) and apply the 01.27.02 firmware update. Later, I download a file from my collection, but the sansa doesn't recognize all the tags of tracks. I don't know if it's a name of file or any other problem. For example, I have in my coldplay album

    drwxrwxrwx 2 tuxtor 4096 tuxtor 2010-09-27 00:41 (2002) A Rush of Blood To The Head
    drwxrwxrwx 2 tuxtor 4096 tuxtor 2010-09-27 00:49 castles
    drwxrwxrwx 2 tuxtor 4096 tuxtor 2010-01-06 01:30 Parachutes [2000]
    drwxrwxrwx 2 tuxtor 4096 tuxtor 2010-09-27 00:41 Viva La Vida or death and all his friends

    I'm sure that all the files have the good tags (I can see it in amarok, banshee, etc.), but in the sansa I can watch Parachutes and Viva vida La or dead... the other albums appear with the album unknown and artist unknown.

    I'd be willing to bet that they don't.

    ID3v2.3 ISO-8859-1 is the format of the desired ID3 tags. If you use Linux, I suppose that whatever program you are using is not written this tag format. There was more here before with the same scenario.

  • Sansa View cannot read files on himself

    My opinion does see the files stored on the TI more. I'm syncing a new CD with the help of drag / move. I always sync stuff in MTP mode now because I would like to use it through my xbox. After synchronization, the player has been refreshing the database and as usual the player rebooted itself, but the hold button is on and it didn't start. So I turned it back and when I went to make sure that the files were in sync with all the tags, I discovered that I had nothing more. No songs, artists, albums, videos, photos, fm presets, nothing. When I checked the system information it showed that I had left 7053 Mb of space. It shows 0 songs, artists etc. in the info too. I have it plugged into my computer and both of the MTP and MSC computer couldn't find all the files. My Xbox can read all files well. I have reset the player everything than the default etc. I have same trandferred files more so he can update the entirely new database, it did not work. Formatting is not an option, because my computer had just disc erased after obtaining a series of Trojan virus. All images, videos and music files have been saved on my drive temporarily. I can not replacemost lost files because they were the only copies. I need to get back them, does anyone have an idea?

    Thanks in advance, cccInitiate

    I solved my problem. Since my Xbox can detect files I again they were always there. I have connected my player to the computer in MTP mode again and check the telus run a virus, more precisely on removable disks with a description of FAT32. One of them was my player, the reinstalled computer equipment for display. I got it and then reload the memory of you device scan FAT32. Once the scan is finished, I could see the files on my computer in MTP mode only. However the view did not see files on himself. Done on the computer in MTP mode, on that I removed an album, then replace it. When I disconnected my player he refrshed his memory again, this time taking about 5-6 minutes. When he was done, I got all my files back.

    If someone has never problems to view the files on the drive, connect to their computers in MTP mode. DO NOT OPEN A FOLDER TO VIEW FILES ON THE SANSA VIEW DEVICE. Ignore the message, select take no action and open my computer. From there, you can open removable disk_VIEW ANSA. Do not open the small image of the view, and then transfer files from 10 or if the player off and then back on. Wait for the drive to update its database and everything will be good.

    I hope that someone who saves a little headaache. Good day

  • How can I control or change the ID3 tags with the new v12.4 of iTunes?

    On the latest version of iTunes (12.3), right click on a file gave the option "Convert ID3 Tags"... ».

    But with the new iTunes (12.4), this option has disappeared and I can't find a way to control the tag on mp3s.

    Mr Apple, why put obstacles for those working?

    It is still possible, but is no longer a part of the menu of right - or control-click option.  Now, it is available at:

    • File / create new Version...

    Don't know why it was deleted, but Apple say:

    http://www.Apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

  • convert mp3 iTunes 12.4 and worst id3 tags

    What the * don't have done with the new itunes Aplle?

    The converter is not in the right click Menu anymore and they put much worse...

    AND WHERE THE * IS THE ID3 TAG CONVERTER?

    Did remove it or did someone knows where to find it now?

    Happy to answers

    Thank you

    I just noticed that.  That's a no-no.  They REALLY blew it.  Is any more convenient.  They got rid of all the shortcuts at the top and you have to click in the menus to get where you want.  Not good!

    They's also rid the shortcut CREATE list READING GENIUS. You must go through the right-click menu, suggestions of genius, then at the bottom of this menu select save playlist.  I'm going back to the previous version.

    It seems that every update that they make worse it!  They are deliberately crippling iTunes because they are getting rid of the purchased music.

  • ID3 tags to change during the transfer on USB

    When my iMac to transfer on a USB mp3 tracks, the ID3 tags are somehow get reversed. My car stereo then displays the correct track number, but plays and the false name of audio and the railway. In this particular case, I try to transfer an audiobook with 66 chapters. I named the files 001, 002, etc. in order to read in the correct order. ID3 tags are named Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc. I can't understand why so, when read in my car, it will show track 001, but read the audio Chapter 4 and show Chapter 4. The funny thing is, does it only on my Mac. If I transfer files from my Mac to work they correctly and display all the correct information. I tried to copy from iTunes and from the finder directly and pass the ID3 info in both directions; They even produce different results, but both are mixed up. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

    I don't know how to copy the files on your player could possibly change the iD3 tags.  They are part of the file, and it would be like saying take a book on a shelf and put it in a box caused some pages from the book to the book.  Are you sure that the track numbers you see are the real file names?  I think the most likely is despite the naming convention of the file that you are using your player somehow files out of use.  I imagine that you have provided the correct order in the track number and if there are a number of disk that it conforms to the order you want too.

  • Audiobooks ID3 tag? Publishers of ID3 tags?

    I am downloading of audiobooks in Librivox.org and kind/track #s are not filled.  What is the correct kind of audio books on the Clip: "Audiobook", "Audiobooks", does it matter if I drag the book in audio books on the Clip file?

    I keep seeing people who recommend ID3 tag specific "publishers" - are these editors really one more advantage to just using Windows Explorer "Properties"? (In Explorer, you can hilite the entire group of MP3 files, change the properties and enter the Album, author and like to apply it to the entire list, and it works fine for me except for the track-specific information).  ID3 tags publishers can manage trail edition numbers massively?

    Thank you!

    If I remember correctly, the tag type to be used is Audiobook, singular (I had a problem with the plural when I used a year - that could change over time).  Note that an advantage in the field like, or put audio books in this folder (which is not required to read the files), is that the Clip will be default to the names of file and folder, if the labels of fields are not filled; same as podcasts.  In addition, the Clip will be autobookmark audiobooks and podcasts in the files of audio books and Podcasts (I don't remember if she will also be autobookmark audiobooks and podcasts out records, but with the kind of field filled - I think?).  I like to use different folders on the Clip for the Organization of the files.

    Publishers of tags will allow "batch" (massively) changes of files and often in a very robust way.  I think this is why many will use it to explore.  For example, many publishers of tags will be change / fill in the tags file names or vice versa.  I love the free program MP3Tag - easy to use.  And the sponsor is a very robust program as well (though more complicated).

    Does anyone know where I should look for a charger to connect to my Sansa View to my computer?  I bought several years ago and have misplaced the connector.

  • The Sansa View headphone jack repair

    How to fix a headphone jack for listening to Sansa View problem

    I bought a refurbished Sansa View 8 GB a while back for $60 at a hypermarket on the local computer and
    It came with a political guarantee of 60 days and 30 days of return of the store.  I liked the view better
    only the rocket and the Clip, they had for similar prices because of the larger screen.  At the time I'm not
    know that Sandisk has been gradually the support of support for new players, or about the
    others have had to problems.
    On the second day, I had the player, I noticed that the headphones were not playing both
    channels correctly, and if I shook the card he got much louder.  I could the deal and he would play
    good for awhile and then a channel would cut out randomly.  After some research, I found that
    others have had the same problem.  I tried to return it, but somehow, I had lost the hardback cover
    that describes the product and contains the chisel, and they could not return.  They would have
    I would like to swap with someone else and his sleeves to return the original unit, but they sold the
    them and never got over.  I think I was about $ 60 at that time here, so I went
    back line for further research.  I found a guy on this forum who had disassembled one, therefore, using
    his instructions (with some modifications), I took mine hand, found the bad soldering and fixed
    them.  Here's how:

    1. use a PIN or sharp knife to release the tiny connector black rubber that covers the screw
    It must be removed to open the case; It is located to the right of the usb plug (ahead of)
    Reader).  Put the CAP and the screws that you remove so later in a small Tupperware
    you do not lose them.
    2. remove the screw, with a very small phillips head of a glasses or a good game repair kit
    precision screwdrivers.
    3. the bottom right corner should now be free; Remove the plastic cover of metal
    Basic it and work slowly around the case counterclockwise, separating the nail of the thumb
    If you're going to.  You may need to use a tiny flat head to press the strips in transparent plastic
    which become visible when you move along the line of separation.  Take your time in order to not break
    no label.  Finally you get to the last tab in the lower left corner of the headphone jack.
    This is where I had my only problem.  Other blogs say to lift a lever to more
    release this tab; I found that nothing seemed to free him and after several minutes of
    soft eyes I broke something and it came loose.  I think it was super-colle in place!
    4. I didn't take away the little water that connects the encoder in the Council, because it is very
    difficult to re - install these things, so just press the cover of how to get to the screen and
    Live PC.  There are 2 tiny black screws holding the display remove them and
    equivalent it loose, leaving the attached ribbon cable again
    5. now you can see the battery; out of its niche and disconnect the 3 tiny dumb son.
    Nector and set it aside.
    6. push the lid, so you can see the 3 tiny black screws holding circuit board printed; delete
    them (the last is difficult to see, it's in the corner to the right of the headphone jack).  Equivalent
    the Platinum (the cursor for the power switch appears immediately switch).  You should now be
    looking at the empty metal casing and the display, printed circuit board and a plastic cover should
    all be loose, but still connected by two ribbon cables.  In the Tupperware you
    should have 1 small black cap, 1 small silver screw, 5 small black screws, the slider switch.
    and the battery.
    7. I now inspect the plug welds helmet, and it was very obvious that 2 of
    the legs were loose, probably because of not enough solder on them.  I warmed up a little
    flat-head screwdriver precision with a mini torch and has used and very fine electronics
    welding to weld safely.  After a thorough inspection of the other joints, I decided to leave
    alone because they looked OK.
    8. I now plugged the battery and booted up the test before I re-assembled.  Both
    channels played now, but I've always heard some static when you turn the CAP.  I have fig-
    measured, it was normal in my experience with small electronic devices, so I assembled the player
    and more broadly, tried using headphones and a cable to connect to my receiver.  He
    now worked better, but still had some problems with making good contact.  Now at least I can
    He lay and he will play both channels indefinitely.  I think that the problem is related to the
    bad quality of decision-making.
    9. I'm going to use it at work for a while with my powered speaker system and see how it
    works.  In the future I will try to clean the plug with the electronic device, and if that does not work
    help can I go back in and try a few welding more or contacts inside making bending.
    Worst case I might have to find a plug of new, high quality and weld them, hoping that I don't fry
    whatever it is the heat.

    So repair all taken only an hour (excluding research).  I now have the confidence to
    Difficulty everything that can go wrong in the future.  I could swap the battery in 10 minutes and I
    hear they are only about $20, so I could keep this thing going for years.  I went from $ 60
    brick for a machine that could last a long time.  I wouldn't buy a Sansa View,.
    But if you have already, I sincerely hope that this information will help to...

    It's my last update to my problem of current headphones.  The view is now fixed; Although having a few changes

    appearance.  It now sports an inch and one-quarter long cast taken helmet hanging out where the taking of origin to reside.  You can laugh now, but not for too long, because this thing is perfect now!  The repair is also robust enough to

    Use it as a portable device (carry in your pocket or other) without worrying too ripped loose.

    Here's how I did it:

    After disassembly, I unsolder the old jack, carefully lift one corner at a time, until all 6 solder joints were loose.  The

    2 front and 2 rear tabs are on enveloping metal clips which can be removed separately.  The old jack appears just out of it

    slot in the jury.  Earlier, I bought an extension of 3.5 mm headset (with volume control, $8.99, p/n 4202559) from Radio Shack, just because it was the smallest molded into the store.  They had one for $2.49, what was right, but it was twice as big, so I spent the extra bucks because he must fit into the original hole.  I now have it cut and stripped the wires, leaving only an inch of thread on the new socket.  Then I soldered the 3 wires in their appropriate places, as

    as a result;  looking at the top of the Board, with the power switch facing you, you have 6 contacts arranged like this.

    : the 2 middle are positive of left and right, top left (ground) common to both channels. The others are only to secure the plug to the Board of Directors.   After brazing firmly the son I just put all together. the ribs on the molded strain relief perfectly nested within the original hole in the case, then it will not easily get out but retains some flexibility.  The only problem I see is that the case is not quite keep hanging down in that corner more, but that could easily be corrected by a small drop of super glue.  I'll do it later if it seems that the case is in danger of seperating

    or if the wire pulls.  I have also considered the fill area with hot melt glue, but who could do a more difficult future repair.  I think that super glue will be the best and is still to open again if you only use a microdot of glue.

    So after all this pain and suffering, I finally a player, maybe I can use for years to come.  Total cost:

    Given to nine Sansa View 8 GB... $60.00

    RadioShack 3.5 mm ext. p/n 4202559... $9.00

    Duracell Micro SD card 8GB... $20.00

    Total .........................................................................$89.00

    Of course, I could buy a 16 brand new notice of GB for that price, with one year warranty!  Well, NOW you can laugh,

    as long as you want!  But wait a minute, I would have just the same problem with a new, a week or a month

    After the purchase?  Then I could send it to Sandisk for RMA and after paying for delivery, and in the meantime maybe a month to get him back, I would have another new view to manhandle.  So a year later, after the replacement of my 3rd or 4th, the guarantee was due to expire, and I do repair above on it to make it work, having had the use of the thing for only 6 months of the first year, what with shipment will remind it so many times!  So maybe my path is correct. at least I use throughout the day now, and I'll NEVER have to send anywhere.

    The moral of this story is: don't out cheap if you want a decent PMP - spend $150-200 for a Samsung P3 or a

    Cowon S3; both have video and excellent sound and can read files DivX 800 x 600 without conversion, have tactile and menus screens customizable, not to mention the bigger screens.  If you just need to play music, there are a myriad

    players good markets that are simple and almost indestructible and if you lose or break will be a much less expensive than lesson

    that I've learned.

  • The Sansa View will work with USB 1.0?

    I'm buying a Sansa View 8 GB as there are has exceptional offers out there right now.  However, I don't have USB 1.0 on my computer (in XP), can I use the Sansa?   I realize it load probably wouldn't work - I would just buy a power adapter.  I am concerned about the question to know if I can transfer files, etc.   If it's just the speed-, not a deal breaker.  If this is all simply does not work - a lot more thought will have to go into this purchase possible.

    Thank you!

    Thanks for the reply!  I did go ahead and buy one with the Geeks - as they had a very good price.  It should be here tomorrow.  I also bought a power adapter.

    I'll look into putting in a USB 2.0 card.  I had considered before but didn't know if it would support my motherboard.  Just getting worse - my mom has a new computer with USB 2.0 in the next room.

    I've already knew the earbuds and have some that I had bought to replace the one my Zen.

  • Sansa View not to read a micro SD card.

    I have a sansa View 8 GB.  I just got my first sd card.  I loaded music on it from Windows media player 11 on a Vista system, and I don't see any content on the Sansa.  I can see the folder when I insert it into my laptop but I do not see the songs.  What I am doing wrong?

    If you plug your point of view on a USB 1.0 port, you will get a message that says: "this device will not work faster if it is plugged into a 2.0 port. If you do not receive this message, you already have 2.0 and from the age of your computers, they both should be 2.0.

    If your view in my computer as Sansa View, you're auto (or MTP) detection mode. Windows should display files that you have transferred to your view in this mode. I leave my opinion in this mode and have not had any problems to copy or delete any type of file. I have not really found the need for MSC mode.

    Just to check for you, I created a folder music on my card extension and copied an album for her. The view on the album and played it as he does for the music I have in the internal memory.

    The only thing I can think is that the Dell or the card reader adds something to your transfers that conflicts with the view. It is possible that the card reader using MSC mode to view and transfer files to the card. However, the display must always show and play music, but Windows does not display the content because once the card is installed in the view, the view is now in MTP mode, and as already said, files transferred in a mode will be not appear in Windows if the display is in the other mode. I try to leave the card in the view and just use Windows Explorer to copy your music to the card.

    Worked for me, hope it works for you.

    If it goes over to the menu screen and if it is not recognized by the computer, you can do a format of strength. While it is off, turn on the hold switch and then press and hold the top button or 12oclock wheel. Connect it to your computer and as soon as it turns on, unplug it. It should now ask you if you want to format the device.

  • Sansa View not recharge, but the battery becomes hot, no blue ring

    I just bought a Sansa View, my first MP3 player. It did not really work just yet, I've had a week now. The battery life is very short.

    What I can't understand is this evening when I plugged it in to recharge, it will not respond with the blue ring and the battery/back of the appliance becomes hot.

    The laptop USB or the wall socket taken USB now works. He's dead and not answering anything either (but not hot to the touch).

    Jiggling the plug does not help. It is a problem of dealbreaker.

    I will exchange it tomorrow unless someone has a bright idea!

    something is certainly wrong internally, battery and wiring autour seems likely. Get it not traded, that's exactly what you need to do and someone must relay this sandisk problem, because if it is a fault of power, then thers probably more then a player with the potential to make this happen.

  • Sansa view volume problem

    Hello
    My Sansa View works great for 6 months. But now, when I try to listen to music, the sound is strange (somehow alone in the right channel) and it can be fixed that pushing the headphone connector into the player. Can you help me? Is the problem in a helmet or player? Is it possible to apply the warranty for it?

    Thank you very much

    The best way to test would be to do another series of headphones and try them in the drive. If they are thin sounding so you know its your phones, if not, the problem is in the drive which would have been covered by the warranty, if the player is less than 1 year. If this is a problem with the plug and it it less than 1 year you call assistance tech on an RMA number.

Maybe you are looking for
