Hi all, Since my iPod broke i wanted to get rid of iTunes and currently
i'm experimenting with Media Player (since i prefer builtin
solutions..). But there are a few things that bug me and i can't find
anything about how to "fix" them. Maybe one of you can help me.

First: Is it possible to add just one file to the media library and
have Media Player automatically rename it? I love folderwatch.. but it
would be great if i drag a file into it and media player takes care of
the folder structure on it's own. iTunes could that, and i know that
MP11 does it if i rip a cd. But isn't it possible to just add some files
and MP11 renames them according to the tags? Also, isn't it possible
that he automatically changes the file location if i edit the file tags
in the library ?

Second: If i change the music file tags, media player doesn't seem to
change the actual ID3 Tags. That's really annoying as i want also stay
"compactible" to other players if i want to change my library software
in the future. Having to retag all files just because media player isn't
saving Meta information as ID3 tags but his own (?) format is more than
annoying. Is there anything i can do about it ? Hope you can answer my
questions.

Thanks for reading,

Alex

Since no one can help me (asked here and in the media player newsgroup),
i figure it just isn't possible yet (except by programming a plugin, but
I don't have the time to do it and i'm lazy... well, it's mostly the
lazy thing).

Well then... anyone knows reasonable alternatives to iTunes?
