Hey Everyone... Long time lurker.

 

I have a Z2, and I can't seem to get it to accept genre information from CDs. I am burning them in iTunes and then downloading them to the unit, but every song comes into the library as Other. I typically sort my music by genre, and it kinda sucks that I gotta go in to every song and update the genre. Is there anything I'm missing or not doing correctly?

 

Thanks for your help in advance.

Good question. I don't use Genre on Cd's, but I think I'll try it tonight and see what I get.

I'm bumping this thread coz I would like to know also. I did the same thing, changing the genre in iTunes to match the genre that the z2 has but it was showing us others. Has anybody figured out a fix for this?

This thread is getting a lot of views but no one bothers replying. Can no one help me out with this?

this is so annoying. i think its just the burning software we are using. im using nero express, and when you look at your list of songs, it shows title and album, but no genre, and i cant find anyway to add it either.
