Burned out on the 1st song in my iTunes library
Anybody else sick of hearing the intro to the 1st song in their iTunes library when the iPhone connects?

Never been an issue for me, but I don't have anything in my iTunes library (I use Spotify). Definitely a pain through, I know when my gf drives my X5, the same Lady Gaga song always starts playing when she selects Media in iDrive.

Kzang says "I put my song on random for that very reason". I did not know this would fix that problem. I'll give it a shot. |

What I ended up doing is pulling the metatags for the first song that always starts playing and downloading a .mp3 with a minute of blank audio, and then renaming said .mp3 with the matching metatags, and then overwriting the song on my iPhone.
Elegant? No. Does it work? Yes. Do I have to listen to the opening guitar riff of A Little More Summertime anymore? Absolutely not. |

Nice! You have recently pointed out that my M-Sport is fake tinsel because it is not a true ///M car and now I have the pleasure of knowing that my iPhone sucks too... Good stuff, thanks!

In short, can you dumb this down for me? I have an iPhone 6. Any help would be appreciated. |

For the purpose of dumbing it down, just think of an mp3 as a music file or a track that is compressed so that it doesn't consume a large amount of storage space. Metadata is data that provides information about other data, so in this case the name of the artist and the name of the song would be referred to as the metadata. This is all done on a computer via the iTunes application and the modified track is then synced (sent) to the iPhone. Last edited by Chadmatic; 05-31-2017 at 02:21 PM.. |
