Hi All, I have just burned some c/d's with Serpentine for a friend from some itunes he owns. More than half are correctly titled but the rest are not. I have re-named a lot of the tracks from e.g. <01 track 01.M4A> to <songname .M4A> However when I open the files in any media player or burner it reverts to its initial filename or nearest whole number e.g. <unknown track 1 .ogg> or <track 1 .wav> is there some way I can force a rename that will remain? Regards John

Most media players read the meta data (IDv3 tags) , here<http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/153034>is some more info and a summary of a couple of GUI based examples. I used to have a python script that would rename them, but I no longer remember the name of the script.
