WMP library organizes with WAVs

I have a bunch of extracted WAV files to a CD later.  (Another computer etc..)  I see them in WMP 11, but they are all in an album called 'Unknown' there are a thousand or more songs in this album.  I could not find a way to enter the artist or album information so I can find what I'm looking for.  Is it possible to do this?

Thank you
Alex

Hello
 
You might have items in your library in Windows Media Player that are missing or incorrect media information, such as songs that have missing or incorrect titles songs, track numbers, names of artist, album titles, genres and so on. Because the player relies on media information to organize the items in your library, it is important that all items in your library have accurate and complete media information.
 
This article explains how you can use the player to add or change information about the media for the items in your library:
 
I hope this helps.
 
Kind regards

  • WMP library does not track length or bit rate for some files

    I use WMP11 on XP Pro.  I started to copy old vinyl to your computer using Sound Forge Audio Studio 9 and save the .wav files.  The problem is that SOME of the recorded files appear in the WMP library with a length of vacuum and "0 Kbps" as the bitrate (but they are still very well).  There seems to be no rhyme or reason for it - today, I copied an album with 10 titles and 7 & 8 track numbers show, but the other tracks do not show a length.  In addition to the missing length and bitrate 0, each of these files also seems to be displayed with an incorrect size in the library.

    When I view the file properties in Windows, they all look identical with a bit of RRSP 1411 Kbps (everything else is the same too).

    Wait - it gets even more strange!  I just sent this folder on the network to another computer as XP with WMP11.  The WMP library on this computer now displays the titles 1, 2 & 5 correctly, but all others are wrong (including two tracks that showed on the first computer.  Note that these files have not changed anyway I just make a copy to the network location.

    Anyone know what is happening and how to fix it?  Thanx

    In general when I saw mistakes like that it is because the information in the file was written to the header file in a non-standard way. I would try using freeware application Saver WAV, which is generally used to retrieve audio from damaged disks, but also works well to correct errors in files audio .wav.

  • WMP - library is partially damaged?

    I noticed in my library displayed in WMP 12, for a good part of my music, that it is listed under "Unknown".

    I still use iTunes to import my music in my music folder, and give them the same ID3 tags, and each file MP3 itself is in perfect condition in my library folder.

    But inside WMP, it sporadically tells me that different albums lack information and groups of hundreds of songs within an album group 'unknown '. I tried to repair the library several times, and it will always end up with a few albums missing illustrations, or group the different albums in the catigory 'unknown '.

    I find this curious because the files themselves are there in the computer and files, but WMP does not seem to be able to catigorize all. I ran the resolution of problems, which tells me that my library is corrupt. I delete the WMP library and then restore, only so he can still tell me that a lot of albums lack information.

    Is it a case where the application data must be deleted? Or should I try and unload/reload completely WMP?

    Thank you.

    I believe that I have resolved, at least for my particular issue.

    For all the music in the "Unknown" category, I went back to iTunes, changed their 2.2 to 2.3 ID3 tags, and then they immediately appear, correctly, in WMP.

    Honestly, I don't know a thing about ID3 tags, so I always kept at 2.2 because it is the default value. Doing a quick search on Google, it seems that 2.3 is now the standard for music, while responses it seems.

  • Library organizes not only optimized files

    I wasn't sure how the title of this question. I have the WD Black ^ 2 double disc in my laptop, and I keep my files on the stretch of 1 tera-bytes of disk. I've linked my libraries in folders on the storage disk; I have the folders on the storage drive optimized for the respective file types, but when I access files through libraries, they are not organised according to their optimization. I tried to solve the records of libraries, but there is no customization tab to select. Any ideas?

    Libraries are results simply defined by XML arranged in a way that looks like a folder, but since this is just a collection of objects of search results, all records will be taken on the style of the library and not the folder.  There is no way to change this, but you can change how the library organizes the content of these two locations:

  • PSE8 Organizer with PSE9 Editor

    I try to use PSE8 Organizer with the editor of PSE9 (don't like this that they see the folder in organizing PSE9).   I tried to do this in two ways: by setting the PSE9 Editor as an additional editor and replacing all files in the directory of Photoshop Elements 8.0 with the files in the directory of Photoshop Elements 9.

    The method editor additional translates:

    1. a new version of the file being opened is created in the Organizer every time and that the file is what is pulled into the Editor (he named _edited_ # and added to a version of the original set each time)
    2. can only enter edit from the Edit menu (i.e., additional editor does not appear right click the menu drop-down)-can learn to live with that if point 1 can be corrected.
    3. Do not get the locked files in the Organizer, when they open - can learn to live with it, too


    Replace the files in the directory results in

    1. The PSE9 Editor opens when you select "Edit with Photoshop Elements" in right click menu downwards (or the Edit menu), but it does not have a file in the editor.
    2. If I use the command of opening the editor, he brings the file but it doesn't lock
    3. Same problem by recognizing only not the Organizer as above.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Note: I searched in the registry a little, but nothing jumped out at the eyes me immediately (by adding the key to 'CurrentCatalogPath' in section 9.0 of items Organizer under the software key CURRENT_USER stopped the message that the organizer was not being used but still did me not to save the changes in the organizer of items or options to add to the game to version)

    I agree with your point of view on PSE 8 Organizer. I'd also rather for the same reason. My job is to have 2 monitors. I keep PSE8 Organizer on the left and editor-in-Chief of PSE9 on the right. Then I drag around. My catalog paths and parameters in the two organizers is the same. PSE9 edited items will appear in 8... Make sure your "watched folders" settings are defined, and then the same in the two organizers. Its a little awkward... but it works for... but me, I'm just a new type of PES.

  • WMP library is corrupted

    In WMP, the songs on the album are incorrectly shown be distributed between the two artists.
    The correct artist has 1.7 securities but some other artists has the rest of the beaches 8.11.

    I tried the WMP convenience store who reported "library is corrupted.
    I leave the store rebuild and restart, with no improvement.

  • How can I access my library songs with someone's computer?

    I sold my computer and don't think much about music on my phone. Well, I had to replace my phone, and I noticed that more than 500 songs, that I had on my music had disappeared.  So I used the computer of my father who has installed iTune.  I thought when I signed with my user ID and password, I could access my music library.  Well, I found out that none of my songs are in the library.  It was my fathers library, even after I connect with my id/password.

    How can I get all my music on the library with the help of someone's computer?

    can multiple people can have their own library on a computer?

    Thank you.

    See download your past - purchases of Apple Support. You can download purchases of multiple accounts on the same computer, but you can create your own separate library on a portable player. See Open a different iTunes library file or create a new one - Apple Support.

  • WMP library has duplicate entries

    When I view the contents of my WMP11 library most of the entries on each album are in duplicate.  Can someone tell me please how to fix this single entry for each record.  Thank you.

    This is may be caused by a corrupted media library. To reset the library, follow the instructions for WMP 11 on XP at http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary . Note the reset of the library will make you lose all the counts to play and possibly ratings too. Tim Baets

  • Windows Media Player-how delete the audio files in the WMP library and add album art

    How can I get rid of dublicate on WMP songs? How can I get all the cover art?

    To make WMP automatically look for the cover, make sure retrieve additional information from the Internet are checked in Tools - Options - Library (press Ctrl + M, if you don't see the Tools menu). The only add missing information option is recommended.

    Regarding duplicates, I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

    -Restart the PC.
    -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
    -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
    -In this file, rename the old Media Player like Media Player folder. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
    -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.
