Random Meta Changes

dbutters · 01-15-2008, 03:31 PM

I finally figured out how to reliably get video onto my zune. It's awesome, really makes me happy. However, I'm having a random issue with the meta tags on my videos. I currently have around 90 tv shows and movies on my zune, and occasionally (like every other time I sync), I'll have to go through and fix seven or eight tags. They will have taken the name of another video - so my copy of Resident Evil will suddenly be tagged as Futurama Episode 10, and so on. Anyone have any insight into this? I have a Zune 80, fully updated, with a WinXP machine. I haven't noticed this happening with my songs, but there are several thousand of those so i don't know that I would any time soon. Thanks in advance for whatever help!

I've actually never heard of this problem. Do the changes happen at the time of sync, or on their own?

It seems to be happening during the sync.

Hum.

Well, you might try a software reinstall. I'd also uncheck "Find missing information" in the software settings.

I noticed a couple songs that it happened to today. I just don't know. I'll try a reinstall some time and post what happens.
