SS Title/Folder Bug

Hi, I've been using SS 4.2 transferring my old SP MD collection to my XP computer via an RH1. Some of my unlabeled tracks seem to get mistitled by SS, so I will manually go in and relabel them with the correct information. After retitling, the track info reads correctly in SS, but when I go to the actual folder where the files exist, the files are still mislabeled. Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing to refresh all the title info or is this some kind of SS bug?

It's no bug. Sonicstage keeps a record of the original file and stores that information forever. Any changes you make will be seen of course, but the original file stays exactly the way it was when it was first created, or uploaded in your case from SP MD. Only solution is to upload the old minidiscs again with your RH1, remembering this time to title everything.

Modifying the track info of already imported files within SonicStage only updates the tags of the files, and not the filenames themselves.

Best bet is to name the tracks before uploading, you can do this easily from within SonicStage.

For your files that have already been imported, you'll have to manually change the filenames yourself, and then re-import the files (just drag & drop from explorer into SonicStage).

Also don't forget to strip the DRM from your uploads, see the link in my signature...

Oh cool! I was just experimenting and found that I could create a new folder with the correct album name, drag the file over into it, then put it in SS and voila fixed folder name! Which is of course what you just told me to do! Thanks to both of you for the help.
