Track name

Post by mosdief1965 »

Hi,
I recently changed my car and the new one plays songs on USB alphabetically instead of in track order. There's no way to change this. I tried changing the file names to disc no - track no - song title but this format doesn't help. I think I need to change the song title in tags to change the order in which it plays. My question is can I do this when I'm syncing to the USB and leave the main library untouched, or so I have to do it in library before syncing? Thanks.

That's not possible.

However after Sync you could run Tools > Auto-Tag from Filename and tag the Title with the Filename to get the same order as filenames.

Thanks, I figured that's what I'd have to do.

Have you checked whether your car radio has an app that can be used to organize files? Kenwood has one because I use it and I believe that others do too.
