Re: [Banshee-List] Auto-Changing Unknown Artist and Album?

[Larry <l22h rcn com>]

Hello again,

To make matters worse, I just re-synched my iPod to the tunes I just 
added and gave names to within Banshee. There were about 15 songs and 45 
minutes of music, and Banshee dutifully told me what songs and artists 
it was copying (and converting) to my iPod; the feedback consisted of 
the information I had just entered for the CD, songs, artists, etc.

This took awhile so I assumed everything was okay. Well, the new songs 
made it to my iPod okay, but all under "Unknown Album > Unknown Artist" 
and the song names are "Track  1", "Track  2"... "Track  15".

I hope someone can help me with this.

Thanks,
Larry
