    Unknown Album?

    I have the meizu m6 and I listen to podcasts, btw is there any software or tips that is helpful to podcast listeners?

    Back to my question,
    I went into the properties for the podcasts and switched it so they have album names and artist names. All of them work except a few that are from the same podcast, I uploaded it so you can see, on the meizu it shows up as uknown album, why?

    it's right there in the menu in the music section. if you don't see music as a section heading (it might be turned off) go to settings/main menu/music and turn that on. browse back , see music/update/confirm

    you can also force it to update by plugging it into the usb while the player is turned on. when you unplug it usually does the update, right? same thing only when your away and it faults you can update manually, cool huh?

    Okay I updated it and even restarted it and it still says missing album, it does it for the same exact songs to. Should I upload a podcast that works and one that doesnt work and you guys could test it on your meizu's?

    delete the file from your player and copy the one already on your computer back onto the player; browse to it when it's on your player/right clip/properties. does the player list everything as in your screen shot?

    Okay,

    To fix this problem I have to edit the idv3 tags for all of them and convert them to 1.0.

    I have to do it manually for every podcast I download in iTunes. This is a major hassle, is there an easy fix for this?
