ScttLee Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 There are several files that show in the genre area. I have removed the genre info from the embedded files, but they still show. How do I stop these files from showing as genre? There is only one genre that I want to show.

andrewilley Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Try a FULL Rescan after editing the tag information (the bottom option in Settings > Library).

ScttLee Posted December 27, 2019 Author Share Posted December 27, 2019 Tried your suggestion, but they still show. Also, I just noticed that several of the files still show in my tag editor as genres but when I check there is no genre added to them anymore. Using star tag editor spp, the only computer I have access to is a public one that will not allow programs to be added. Thanks for your response.

flyingdutchman Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 @ScttLee, an mp3 file can have id3v2 and idv3v1 tags. Make sure you remove the genre detail for both types. Id3v1 is an older standard but i think Poweramp reads both, eg when nno id3v2 tag is found it will check for id3v1.

Download the stand-alone version of ExifTool from https://exiftool.org/ . Then just drag your music file onto the exiftool(-k).exe file to see a display of all the tags contained in the file.
