windows 7 In Windows 7 media player, how do you re-tag the tracks of compilation albums so that they appear un

[News Bot]

I have ripped some mix and compilation CDs; Windows Media Player automatically tags the songs as belonging to those mix/compilation albums.  I would like the tracks to instead be sorted into their original (source) albums.  For example, Fleetwood Mac "The

Chain" should be track 7 of "Rumours," not track 18 of "The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac."  I used to be able to do this through "Advanced Tag Editor," but that option is not available in the Windows 7 media player.  When I try to change the album info for a

particular song (either through "Find Album Info" or manually editing), Windows Media Player changes ALL of the songs in the compilation album to that new album title.  Drag and drop doesn't work either -- I don't already have the album to which I wish to

relocate the compilation tracks.

 

How do I separate the tracks of a compilation CD and sort them into new albums?

 

Thanks!
