Hi

Another Noobie question for you pros out there. I'm still trying to get my head around some of the magic going on in MB. My music is stored on my removable drive D and whenever I sync the drive with MB music, I get the following info box:

http://tinypic.com/r/1zxa1a9/9

I've searched my music files and none of these tracks appear to be duplicates (unless they are hidden--if so, where. please?)

Can anyone advise why these same tracks come up everytime I sync? Obviously i haven't deleted them, but if I do, will the tracks still be available somewhere on MB to play?

Thanks

Steven

have you configured the device to be filled with random tracks?
a screenshot of your device synch settings might be useful for help

Thanks, Steven. Happy to send, but when you reference device synch settings, what are you referring to and where will I find them?

Thanks again

  • Now with FiiO M11!
Ctrl+o > Devices > select the device > Configure button > Settings

Also, the fill with random tracks checkbox he asked about is on the Music tab after you get the Settings screenshot for Steven.

Thanks, Steven & Critterman. Here's the screenshot

Obviously it's got something to do with the "delete tracks that are not on the autoplay list. Next NOOBIE question:  ??? Can't imagine why most of my Allison Krauss tracks aren't on the auto sync list. How to I add them, please?

Anticipating Steven's next request, can you share the Music tab as well? Same place as the Settings tab you already posted. That will show what content is being synced.

Hi Steven

They're all in USB Drive D:/ . It's a micro SD card I leave in my PC permanently.
