Songs marked as "-" in playlist

[rvbakken]

WinAmp 2.91 @ WinXP Pro (all updates installed)

My problem is that when I look at the playlist many of my songs are marked as "-", even if they have a filename and are showed correct in Media Player 9.0. Anyone know how to fix this? Between, the first time I added songs to the playlist the name was showed, but when I started to scroll down and the list startet to refresh some of the names got changed:S Take a look at my screen if you dont understand...

Tnxh

PS: Same problem befor I installed skins to...

It is actually Media Player 9 that is stripping ID3 tags and leaving the fields blank. Not a Winamp bug at all, it's a WMP bug, though I think they prefer to call it a feature.

Open Windows Media Player 9 -> go to Tools -> Options -> then go to the 'Media Library' tab. Make sure to uncheck "Update my music files by retrieving missing media information from the Internet".

Then manually fix the ID3 tags that WMP broke.

if its quite a lot and you dont want to manually redo them all, EZ playlist is pretty good.
