Sorting by Id3 tags ?

Jacksondog · 8th August 2002, 21:36

Ummm... Is there a plug-in that shows the id3 tags as a song plays or allows you to sort music via id3 tags? I use my Winamp and am very happy with it but I have been busy tagging and renaming my stuff and now I am ready to start using it in a little different way Music Match allows you to do this but I would rather use Winamp. Thanks!

I believe wa3 will have a function like that.

Press Ctrl-P --> Plugins -> Input. Click on "Nullsoft MPEG Audio Decoder" and then on "Configure".

Click on the "Title" tab, and make sure "Use ID3v1/v2 tags" is ticked. Below that you can choose how Winamp will display your ID3 tags. Set it up how you like. Personally, I use

code:
%1 - {%3} %2

but it's entirely up to you.
