![]() (I am going to include screen snapshots from the Windows version that I use.)Ĭhange Directory to select the folder you want to process. Open MP3TAG and use the Change Directory function to point to the folder containing the MP3 tracks that you want to process.That way, you can easily create or modify any script for your own purposes.) (It is possible to import a script file into MP3TAG, but in the time it takes to do that, you can learn how to create them. Having done that, a “script” will have been established and saved, so that on the second and future usage occasions, you will be able to very quickly process any group of MP3 tracks using fast keyboard shortcuts. We go through this part of the process one time. (I suggest – at least initially – working on a copy just in case you make a mistake and change things that shouldn’t be changed!) Procedure – First Time Through Place a copy of the MP3 music files that you want to alter in a directory/folder. ( Please note that I am just a fan of MP3TAG, I am not associated with the developer, Florian Heidenreich who is based in Dresden, Germany. (For Windows there is a portable installation available – it will not alter your Registry.) Obtain a copy of the software MP3TAG for windows or Mac. The (hopefully minor) downside is that any device that displays the song title will show the adjusted version with its track number prefix. Any software that incorrectly uses the Song Title tag to determine the play order will thus be “tricked” into playing the tracks in Track Number order instead. Thus (for example) if the song “Space Oddity” is the first track on the album, then we will update it to become “01 – Space Oddity”. ![]() The work-around involves altering the Song Title tag in your MP3 files such that the Track Number is prefixed onto the Song Title. This guide takes you through step by step what to do. ![]() Setting up a the “script” takes a little while, but after that it becomes really quick and easy to alter your MP3 album tracks so they play in the correct track order on the faulty device. Using a computer, you can process one folder/album at a time, or you can process files in bulk – your choice. There is no known way to force the correct order in the player itself – but if you have the ability to process your MP3 music files on a computer, there is a work-around. This is due to a long known bug in the player software – one which Toyota/Lexus (and possibly other vendors, I don’t know ?) appear to have simply ignored for many years. I can browse and select an album, but it plays the tracks in alphabetic order of song title – not in the order of the track numbers. I have a 2021 Toyota, and I maintain a copy of my music library in MP3 format on a USB stick for in-car use. Your car media player plays MP3 music tracks from a USB-stick in the wrong sequence.
