Ripped songs on CD’s listing alphabetically in r150b

#1

Hi, I’m hoping someone can help me. I recently downloaded about 75 cd titles into my hifi rose 150b. I previously downloaded about 500 last summer.
The new ones are now listing the songs from the cd’s alphabetical, not chronological. When I play the cds it doesn’t play as the cd intended. The older downloads from last summer play just fine. It’s quite annoying to want to listen to a cd and it won’t play in the correct order. When I look at the files, they have the titles listed correctly but, in the app, when I open a cd, the appear, and play, alphabetically. Can this be fixed without having to delete and redownload the cd’s.

Thanks

You will find there are a lot of issues and as many excuses with the management of the music storage and the way the ROSE units play songs or not play songs. Just one issue is the non existing shuffle play - things the first units of other manufacturers could do already 12 years ago.

Are those new CDs tagged with track numbers properly?

Are you going to post unrelated and unhelpful bitching in every thread here? I’m sorry if Rose turned out to be to complicated for you. Maybe you should stick to something 12 years old.

Hi, thanks for your question. So, when I check them in their files they are numbered. However, when I go to play them they are not. The Cd appears and the tracks are Alphabetical. The ones that I downloaded last summer are numbered both in the files and when I play them. Hope that makes sense.

I will comment until these things get fixed and ROSE stops all the ridiculous excuses!! You can like it or lump it :rage::rage:

I think normally players look at track # tags in files to determine the playback order, so I would look at the files using something like MP3Tagger or dbPowerAmp or some other tool that can see and edit them. If those aren’t present, alphabetical would be the best guess anyone could make for playback order.

Well, no one can stop you from behaving like a clown.

Maybe you should stick to cassette players, Rose is obviously too complicated.

Oh, I wish they still would sell new tape decks - I would straight away get rid off the ROSE unit!

#11

Highly doubtful you even have one.

But you can find a Dragon in mint condition on eBay.

Hi Boris, thanks for your replies. I double checked all the files in the databank file on the hifi rose and they are all displaying the same, with numbered tracks. It’s only when I play them that the new files created play the tracks alphabetical. The old ones play numerically. It’s quite strange.

#13

What have you used to check file tags?

#14

Hi Boris, I used the database from the Hifi rose itself. Here are a couple of pictures. One shows the track playing with the track number listed, the other shows what happens when I try to play a full cd. Notice no. Number listed and the titles are listed alphabetically.

This is a picture of one of the older CD’s I ripped last summer.

Interesting, but if I am reading your screenshots correctly, CDs you ripped last year seem to have track numbers as part of the name, so maybe they are really playing alphabetically, too?

#17

Thanks for all your help Boris. It’s really strange.They are all downloaded the same. It’s just when I try to play them back that it’s different. Who know why? I would be interested if others are having the same issue.

A lot of people saying that the whole file management by ROSE needs to be overhauled! In my opinion it’s not fir for purpose. Some people here are paid by ROSE to play down bad issues.

Ise a chance you could look at those files on a computer? If on Windows, even Explorer should show basic tags…
