I would like to understand this better. Is it that each song contains embedded data called a Tag which contains multiple fields. I thought that each field was a seperate tag and that they were associated with the CD as a whole. When my VBA rips a CD it creates 3 extra files besides the flac files. Two are the album art (cover and folder). The third and I am blanking on the extension, I thought contained the CD data or contained the tags. -- tmauceri ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tmauceri's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41450 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83244 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
