"Question for Creative Zen Jukebox owners (and other MP3 player owners too)"

Here's the deal - I bought me one of those 30GB Creative Zen Jukebox MP3 players from work last week (complete with FREE Travelsound speakers, woo) for about £210. I'm very much enjoying having my entire music collection in my pocket, even if I did nearly mess it all up by dropping it on a running machine today. Whoops.

Anyway, I'm in the process of copying all my miscellaneous music CDs onto my PC, then my Jukebox, but I'm having trouble with the ID3 tags, in that the Jukebox software isn't recognising them. I can rip the album to WMA through Windows Media Player and it'll recognise the track name, artist, album and genre, but when I open the software to transfer it to the player, it only displays the track name, leaving all the other fields as unknown. This means that if I actually want to know what a track is, I have to fill in all the fields manually. Most annoying (even more annoying is where sometimes it recognises all fields, but on one track only - grrrr).

Any ideas? Something to do with ID3 tags? I've no idea, but I've got about 110 more albums to add to my 200 odd on the jukebox, and I'll be darned if I'm typing it all out manually.

Zen's are class.

Hide it behind a lesser product, as I can't order it until tonight.

Yup, one left in stock, don't dawdle now.

Ooh, well I'll get some money out and get my brother to order one tonight (yeah, I'm a bum without a credit card)

Psst, Mojo - there's only one left of these I believe (can't check stock from home, but there was two before I bought one). £226.99 for the 30GB model and you get the cool Creative Travelsound speakers free, free I tells ya!

I use iTunes to rip my music from CD's onto my PC, converts them into Mp3's with the tags all fine. Also has a database to search on stuff that dosn't have tags that you might have downloaded. Has only failed to find a small number of my albums. Might be worth a try..

Damn, I had a perfect set up for some painful innuendo there.
All this salt must be making me rusty.

At a guess, things in Snuggs' pockets right now:

Mobile
Fags
Polos

Oh they are pretty cool, and tough as hell, mine has taken many severe knocks that would probably render lesser plastic cased players - inoperable, (hint hint).Its also they first time ever Ive come across an appliance where the actual battery play time is longer than the quoted 14 Hrs...

stunning.

Champion, I shall get myself one from SR very soon.
