You upload a favorite MP3 album or compilation of tracks to an Android phone. The album looked neatly in a PC media player, but when you launch the Play Music app on the mobile device, the album is either scattered into several partial albums, has wrong track order, or shows titles with strange characters.<br />
<br />
Sounds familiar?<br />
<br />
<i>Example (an album looks perfectly tagged on PC, but when uploaded to Android, it splits in two and shows a garbled title!):</i><br />

If
you are persistent enough, you google the situation and discover
something called tags, the metadata embedded in MP3 files that inform
media playing software about the properties of a track. You then try to
put your music metadata in order using various tagging software, but
sometimes that still does not help.<br />
<br />
Ok, enough now with the introduction. Here is a one-stop guide to all
the most common tag issues that lead to integrity, track numbering
and/or title encoding problems on Android/Google Play Music. The reason,
basically, is that the mobile platform adheres to metadata standards a
little too much. If you don't want to read the details, just skip to the summary section down below.</div>

The explanation</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_46025911">
The <a href="http://id3.org/id3v2.3.0" rel="nofollow">id3 tag standard</a> used for mp3s and some other music formats is 1) unofficial (de-facto), and 2) rather difficult to implement.<br />
<br />
For those reasons, tag generating software often implements the
specification either partially, without going into minute details, or
with errors. For the same reasons, more sophisticated taggers and media
players implement workarounds for deficiencies common in mp3 tags. This
is the case with the iOS music player, but less with Android and some
other products that try to strictly follow the unofficial id3 standard.
And that is the root cause of albums/tracks showing not the way you want
them in Android/Play Music! Read on to learn how to get devices display
your mp3 albums right.<br />

<h2 class="subtitle">
Uploading</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_46025915">
As strange as it may sound, the way you upload music to your phone <i>can</i>
impact how it is displayed on the device. Specifically, it is better
NOT to transfer your MP3 collection through a wireless LAN using apps
such as ES File Manager, because somehow the track numbers end up lost
in the process. Maybe this will be fixed sometime, but better just use a
USB cable instead - it would be faster, and no metadata would be lost.
To be able to do that, follow a guide. Plenty of them are available,
just google something like "<i>enable USB file transfers between Android and PC.</i>" Now, to the tag issues and ways to address them.</div>

Tag issues, causes, and solutions</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_46025959">
<b>Album splitting.</b> This is one of the worst and most often encountered.<br />
The reasons may include: 1) 'Album Artist' frame inconsistencies; 2)
text frame encoding differences either within a single track or across
an album.<br />
<br />
When the former is the cause, that can be fixed relatively easy by
using popular free mp3 tagging software. Either make the 'Album Artist' field uniform across the album or
simply blank it. This can also be done automatically using a tagger with
scripting support or <a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">automated tag fixing software</a>.<br />
<br />
If the above solution does not help, then reason 2 is most probably
the cause, and unfortunately this one is more difficult to resolve: you
should remove all tags from an album and re-create them from scratch.
This also can be done automatically by either a script or <a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">special tagger</a>.<br />
<br />
<b>Wrong track order.</b> Less nasty, but can be frustrating as well.<br />
Reasons are usually inconsistencies in the track number format, mismatching disk numbers used across an album, or both.<br />
<br />
To address the issue, load the album into a tag editor and review the track and disk numbers. They should all adhere to the <i>nn/tt</i> format (with <i>nn</i> being the track/disk number, <i>tt</i>
the total amount of tracks/disks in the album). If some of the numbers
are blank or do not follow the standard, they would show out of order on
your device. This issue also can be fixed automatically with
scripts/<a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">special taggers</a>.<br />
<br />
<b>Artist / Album / Track Titles are unreadable or contain strange characters. </b>The
encoding issues usually happen when you upload albums to you device
with titles having Unicode characters beyond the A-Z range. This
includes accented characters and titles in native alphabets.<br />
The reason is the same as for album splitting: text frames having
encoding differences and/or failing to follow the id3 de-facto standard.
For a fix, see <b>Album splitting</b> above, <a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">solution</a> for cause 2).<br />
<br />
<b>No cover image.</b> This one is the easiest. Just use a
tagger, manual or <a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">automated</a>, to download the images. On Android, it is
enough to have an image embedded in just one track of an album to make a
device show the pic.</div>

Conclusion and summary (+ a bonus tip!)</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_46026148">
So, to recap: in order to fix most of the issues, you should:<br />
<br />
<strong>1.</strong> Check the album you're going to put on an Android
device for metadata inconsistencies, and fix them using a manual tag
editor or, preferably, <a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">automated MP3 tagger</a>.<br />
<strong>2.</strong> Upload the album over a USB cable.<br />
<br />
<strong>Final tip:</strong> To upload a compilation in one piece,
follow these steps: for all of the tracks, change album name in the tags
to something identical (e.g., <em>'My Favorite Songs'</em>), change the track numbers using the <em>nn/tt</em>
format, in the order you'd like to hear them; as well as be sure to
remove disk numbers, if any, and blank the Album Artist field. After the
uploading, your compilation would be accessible under the album name
you used (<em>My Favorite Songs</em>). Alternatively, create an .m3u8
playlist for the compilation and use an app supporting the playlist
format, such as Rocket Player, to listen to it. <b><a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">Taghycardia </a></b>
can do both automatically - prepare compilations for uploading to a
portable device and create playlists supported by Rocket Player.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Let's say, you have a car stereo that only supports displaying album art up to 300x300 pixels large. If, however, you have plenty of MP3 albums in your collection, embedded cover art resolution can vary over a wide range. How to bring your MP3 archive to your in-car system in a way to ensure you'll always see cover images while playing the music?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />One of the easiest solutions is to use the free app named <b>taghycardia</b>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 1:</span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">Download the program</a>, run the setup, make sure to choose "<i>You'd like to review the settings yourself</i>" in the initial configuration dialog.</span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 2:</span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Configure the program to embed cover art into MP3 files with the required resolution: Check <b>Embed when missing</b> and <b>Limit image size to</b>. Set the desired resolution, e.g., 300x300. Be sure to check <b>Save as</b>. Also, check <b>Get cover art from Discogs</b> if you need to automatically download album images for your music whenever they are missing. <br />In the Choose default action for drag-and-dropped folders, select <b>Quick remove cover art</b>. Click Save.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<h3>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 3:</span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Now you can quickly change the resolution of embedded cover art in a large number of albums at once by first removing and saving existing art, then re-embedding it again in lesser size. This would require as little effort as a drag-and-drop operation and two clicks:<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">1. Select folders with albums you are going to put onto your car stereo, drag and drop them into taghycardia. This will both remove existing cover art and save it locally.<br /> </span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje1ApIk8ept8qccNlUmhsnxE1dAcMK4ibNawtZbpUwMWxovOjuDwDXDH87JpqWA2xs-yS0lKK-bVVOw2VHrV4Fcj7bNBVQNDVWJ88uzCp7IUyj9_1vYVEeXkyNGDZ7Kkh1mIvZ-aif6Ug/s1600/2018-02-03+20_39_52-Greenshot.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="325" data-original-width="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje1ApIk8ept8qccNlUmhsnxE1dAcMK4ibNawtZbpUwMWxovOjuDwDXDH87JpqWA2xs-yS0lKK-bVVOw2VHrV4Fcj7bNBVQNDVWJ88uzCp7IUyj9_1vYVEeXkyNGDZ7Kkh1mIvZ-aif6Ug/s1600/2018-02-03+20_39_52-Greenshot.png" /></a></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">2. Click <b>Go</b>, then click <b>Apply Changes</b>. Now your cover art is embedded back with the 300x300 resolution.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When Apple had updated its mobile OS to version 10, some users began complaining that their music app no longer shows lyrics that they painstakingly added to their tracks before placing into iTunes media library and later uploading to iPhones or other iOS devices.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Whether the reason is a bug in the new iOS or a desire to force iPhone owners to use only Apple's own paid music services, there are several solutions that users might try to make phones display the 'lost' lyrics again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">First of all, Apple made the process of lyrics displaying in the app a bit more difficult. Previously, to view the lyrics for the currently played song, it was enough to tap the album's cover. Now the user must first tap the three-dots icon in the lower right corner of the screen, and then choose View Lyrics from the menu.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">However, as it was said above, some lyrics that previously had been showing, 'mysteriously' disappeared in iOS 10 and above. Currently, there are two solutions to this issue that worked at least for some users.</span><br />

<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Solution 1. Delete the entire music library from your device and re-upload all your tracks</span></h4>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">For this, you must have the full copy of your music collection on your computer properly tagged, and with </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">lyrics </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">pre-embedded. To save you the trouble of manually re-checking song information correctness in iTunes after recreating your music library there, you can use one of the available automated music taggers. I personally prefer </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>taghycardia</b></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">. The program scans your entire music collection indicating any issues such as album/artist spelling inconsistencies or missing cover art, and fixing the problems in a highly automated fashion. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">In addition, taghycardia can <b>find lyrics</b> <b>online</b> for the tracks that miss it and <b>embed</b> them for you into your albums. You can <a href="https://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">download taghycardia here</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After you've made sure your music collection is properly tagged with lyrics and cover art, add the library to iTunes and re-sync with your iPhone. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Most of the 'lost' lyrics should re-appear.</span><br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></h4>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Solution 2. Slightly update the embedded lyrics</span></h4>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If some of the lyrics still appear to be missing on your iPhone, there is another workaround that can help restore them: the texts should be modified just a little bit and re-uploaded to iPhone.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If an album still lacks lyrics after the re-syncing described in the <b>Solution 1</b>, change the lyrics of the tracks slightly, for example by adding an empty line before each song text. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The easiest way to do this is again by using <b>taghycardia</b>. Point the program to the original folder on you HDD containing an album that needs fixing, press Go, double click the line beginning with the word 'Lyrics', and add an empty line before each song text one by one. Now press Update in tags, and re-upload the album onto iPhone. This can be done <b>without re-syncing</b> by enabling Manual music management in iTunes. Having activated the manual option, you can just remove the album from the library, add it from your local HDD folder again, right-click the tracks and choose 'Add to my iPhone'.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Having embedded cover images in music files is good if you like to look at the album art when playing your music on a mobile device. However, JPEGs or pics of other formats embedded in MP3 files can take up lots of useful space on your HDD, SDD or portable player, especially when the same image is inserted into every file of an album, which is most often the case.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The easiest way to quickly remove ALL images from a bunch of MP3 albums is to use a free program called <b><a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">taghycardia</a></b>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Download the utility <a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">here</a>, run the installation file, choose "I'd like to use the program to strip cover art from music files to save space" in the initial setup dialog.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Unlike iOS, Android OS has no standard music player capable of showing lyrics while the user is listening to songs. There are some paid and even free options in Google Play for downloading lyrics, but what if you are in an area that has no mobile Internet coverage? The answer is to use a player supporting the displaying of lyrics already embedded into the tracks.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Unfortunately, most MP3 files do not have lyrics embedded into them. A simple way to find lyrics for your MP3 collection and embed song texts into the tracks is by using <b>taghycardia</b>, a highly automated program for improving music metadata.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">You can <a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">download taghycardia here</a>. When the program is run for the first time, a configuration wizard is displayed. For lyrics discovery, select the option <i>Use for general MP3 autotagging / tag diagnostics</i>, or, if you also want the program to get cover images for your albums online, check <i>Use to download cover art for your MP3 library</i>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After taghycardia has processed your album, it shows diagnostic information about it. To make the program get song texts for you, locate the line beginning with the word "<b>Lyrics:</b> ", and double click it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The music player in iOS have the capability of showing lyrics of the tracks being listened to.

This can be done using taghycardia, a highly automated program for fixing music metadata.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">Download taghycardia here</a>, then run. In the appearing configuration dialog, choose "general MP3 autotagging/tag diagnostics" or, if you also want the program to fetch cover images for your music collection, "to download cover art for your MP3 library automatically".</span><br />

So you grew suspicious about your significant other's behavior of late. She covers her iPhone's screen every time you take a glance at it, and nervously reaches out for her smartphone every other minute as if waiting for a message.<br />
<br />
What's going on, and what websites does she visit, you wonder. There is an easy way to learn that for free; and neither jail-breaking is required, nor spyware install needed. The only thing you'll need is a very short-term access to the iPhone in question - to change its DNS setting. Once you've managed to get hold of her phone, quickly (you might want to rehearse this in advance) do the following:<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>go to Settings, find Wi-Fi, </li>
<li>tap the circled <i><b>i</b></i>, </li>
<li>scroll down to DNS section, </li>
<li>tap the four-numbered IP Address, and </li>
<li>change it to 208.67.222.222 or 208.67.220.220 (these are DNS servers belonging to <a href="https://www.opendns.com/home-internet-security/opendns-ip-addresses/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">OpenDNS.com</a>)</li>
</ul>
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
OpenDNS.com is a free website access logging service. After you change the DNS server IP, the phone's owner would suspect nothing: it would be working as perfectly as ever, only her every website access is now logged by OpenDNS.com.<br />
<br />
Next, create a <a href="https://store.opendns.com/get/home-free" target="_blank">free OpenDNS.com account</a>.<br />
<br />
Then you need to <a href="https://dashboard.opendns.com/settings/" target="_blank">register</a> your home network with your OpenDNS account.<br />
<br />
If your home LAN has a dynamic IP, you'll also need to install OpenDNS' automatic <a href="https://support.opendns.com/entries/23218654-Where-do-I-download-an-OpenDNS-Dynamic-IP-updater-client-" target="_blank">IP updater client </a>on a home system, e.g. on your own notebook or "main" home PC:<br />

<br />
<br />
In about two to three hours after you complete those steps OpenDNS will give you the first precious data:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHHIMg2EViBvSAcAV_t7xcE1WFuAfg40_-rEMRdT3FfoUuyAdAX06HfbUcDY64utkdz61tFy9B4WVRLbhwZ6k4URIGLQcF_m31euLrpzHiS3TLOZ5Fz7NkuJd3IUA_kyPLUrrNeFFIm-k/s1600/2015-06-02+16_20_56-OpenDNS+Dashboard+_+Stats+_+Domains+-+CoolNovo.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHHIMg2EViBvSAcAV_t7xcE1WFuAfg40_-rEMRdT3FfoUuyAdAX06HfbUcDY64utkdz61tFy9B4WVRLbhwZ6k4URIGLQcF_m31euLrpzHiS3TLOZ5Fz7NkuJd3IUA_kyPLUrrNeFFIm-k/s320/2015-06-02+16_20_56-OpenDNS+Dashboard+_+Stats+_+Domains+-+CoolNovo.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
In addition to raw URL list sorted by access frequency, OpenDNS produces spreadsheet files in *.csv format with the same URLs categorized. The service divides its URL list into pages, and for every page it produces a separate CSV-file. This is not very convenient.<br />
<br />
To filter the URL list and make more sense out of it, you can use the free OpenDNS Log Processor, which can read a bunch of OpenDNS CSV files at once. It is an open source program written in Lazarus/Free Pascal. The Win32 binary of the Log Processor can be <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4YU-m7K-v8UUE80QWRuNllQb0k/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">downloaded here</a>, while the sources are under <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4YU-m7K-v8UZlU2YlhvQ2VXN3M/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">this link</a>. In theory, the source could be easily recompiled for Linux, Mac OS X or other platforms supported by Free Pascal as it contains no platform-specific code. A sample config file is included along with the executable.<br />
<br />
The workflow is as follows:<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>you wake up in the morning, login to your OpenDNS account <a href="https://dashboard.opendns.com/stats/all/topdomains/today/" target="_blank">here</a>, </li>
<li>choose the date range from yesterday to today, and </li>
<li>download all the *.csv files into a folder by clicking the corresponding icon and Next several times.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfESh3YtY7hhhh6h-0TdpP1FLuyrwpQIi3YmUkcWNYhXKrIAEZ9lbugiWCC-oQLINQNiQ3ITmtvYTr9fbZXcU7iwo9gP7N9TmhA_4dO2hBdxAcctU-RRfXL6-lbXo_fQGssFyiXwL1f30/s1600/2015-06-02+16_22_44-OpenDNS+Dashboard+_+Stats+_+Domains+-+CoolNovo.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfESh3YtY7hhhh6h-0TdpP1FLuyrwpQIi3YmUkcWNYhXKrIAEZ9lbugiWCC-oQLINQNiQ3ITmtvYTr9fbZXcU7iwo9gP7N9TmhA_4dO2hBdxAcctU-RRfXL6-lbXo_fQGssFyiXwL1f30/s1600/2015-06-02+16_22_44-OpenDNS+Dashboard+_+Stats+_+Domains+-+CoolNovo.png" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Then you may either:<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>move the CSV files to OpenDNS Log Processor folder, and run the program manually or</li>
<li>run a batch file that looks something like this (modified according to your setup):</li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">REM == start opendnslogfilter_GUI.bat ==</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">del /q c:\opendnslog\*.csv</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">move /y c:\downloads\*.csv c:\opendnslog\</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">c:\opendnslog\opdns_gui.exe</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">REM == end opendnslogfilter_GUI.bat ==</span><br />
<br />
<br />
This one will, line by line:<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>clean opdns_gui working folder from yesterday's CSVs;</li>
<li>move in new freshly downloaded ones; and </li>
<li>run opdns_gui.exe to sort them out.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Right away, in the third column you can see "alert" URLs (included in [AlertInclude] section of the opdns_gui config file) she accessed during the last day; in the leftmost column - any URLs categorised by OpenDNS; and in the middle one - the full list of URLs with various advertising and technical addresses filtered out.<br />
<br />
Whenever you want to slim the middle column down even more, you can open Config Editor by clicking the [>>] button, copy something into the [FilteredExclude] section, and press [Save] to save the updated config and reread the CSVs. Easy and clear. Just note that all strings in the config file's sections are treated as substrings by the program; i.e., when you put PORN in a section, the log processor searches for all strings that contain the word.<br />

The same spying trick could be applied to a home PC if you change its DNS settings, to an Android device, or to all devices in a home LAN if you modify your router's parameters accordingly. </div>

If you are sick and tired of having to watch extremely annoying video ads while playing Zynga Words With Friends on your mobile or tablet, there is a solution: play it on PC <strike>while you are working</strike>. The openness of the HTML5 platform along with the power of Chrome-based browsers, plus the enthusiasm of an ad-blocking plug-in developers will bring you the tranquility of playing the game completely free of ads. So the steps to get rid of the aggravating videos (and banners, too) are as follows:<br />
<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Create a fake Facebook account. Choose a good-looking pic for your profile - it will be displayed as your in-game avatar for those who play through Facebook, too.</li>
<li>Run Words With Friends on your mobile or tablet. Open Settings, connect your game profile to the fake Facebook account you have created.</li>
<li>Install Google Chrome or any browser that uses the same rendering engine, like Chromuim, Opera, etc.</li>
<li>Install the Adblock Plus add-on into Chrome. Note: If you already have Chrome and a Facebook profile with a saved password, you can either install an additional browser (e.g. Chromium along with Chrome) or just open a private window (with Ctrl+Shift+N), and have fake Facebook opened there along with real one. </li>
<li>Go to ABP's settings, "Add your own filters" tab, click "Edit filters as raw text" link. Add the following strings to the list of the filters:<div>
<br /></div>
</li>
</ol>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">##div#RY_zyngaPassbackDiv</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">facebook.com###rightCol</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">facebook.com##._4-u2._2ph_._3-95</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">facebook.com##.fbDockWrapperRight<br />wwf-fb.zyngawithfriends.com##.fb_dialog<br />wwf-fb.zyngawithfriends.com##.fb_dialog_advanced<br />zyngawithfriends.com###wwf-dialog_phone_1426426288158<br />zyngawithfriends.com###wwf-unsupported-dialog<br />zyngawithfriends.com###zbar_promoInner</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<br />
These will remove annoying promo dialogs, Zynga's graphic banners along with facebook chat window and ad sidebar. Now you can play pure WWF anytime by going to http://apps.facebook.com/wordswithfriends (you may want to add this to your bookmarks bar or speed dial or whatever).<br />
<br />
If you want a really FAST dictionary of words eligible in Words With Friends along with definitions from Merriam-Webster and thefreedictionary.com, you can also download this simple FREE Windows application: <a href="http://taghycardia.info/wwfenable.html" target="_blank">Words With Friends Dictionary Helper</a>. In addition to the dictionary, the program offers a little cheat (disabled by default): a list of all words in the game that include the word you've entered in it.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">So I've got an 8 GB iPhone and I load it with lots of music. So I wondered what can be done to make the music take less space. As it turned out, many of my music files have cover art images embedded in them. Digging further I've discovered that 1) they often have way more resolution than is needed, and 2) the same cover image is almost always embedded in each and every one track of an album.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">To remove the images from a music collection I intended to put onto my iPhone, I've used the freeware program <a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">taghycardia</a>. The app offers to configure itself for "image stripping" from tags right when you install it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijNNIiD6FGplSyCpRT4vhO4PC1Z9bmULwldFychlFAhZm2a5ourp7JjM6LtZc3-zUGeIKgLCqH2g5aSEMUsAj2jLzC3lv4e8qJv5ExM9rI2pURvt7VoNpLo82-KEFMevrHDyApKjN4NhY/s1600/wizard.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijNNIiD6FGplSyCpRT4vhO4PC1Z9bmULwldFychlFAhZm2a5ourp7JjM6LtZc3-zUGeIKgLCqH2g5aSEMUsAj2jLzC3lv4e8qJv5ExM9rI2pURvt7VoNpLo82-KEFMevrHDyApKjN4NhY/s1600/wizard.png" height="353" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Then it was literally a matter of a couple clicks.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOLgGyMLkQQ14SJ90A4ddRmB-A2NBS304U0BhR3OU7uxaoqXyKQF8GMZZiwIPKwY3ydznvqxBkZFmOvPjAKBxk0HarpV08Xwg6_AUu7OiGCcRn9fKldPQslHh3XZu9l7rlZAITvtyt8GQ/s1600/process.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOLgGyMLkQQ14SJ90A4ddRmB-A2NBS304U0BhR3OU7uxaoqXyKQF8GMZZiwIPKwY3ydznvqxBkZFmOvPjAKBxk0HarpV08Xwg6_AUu7OiGCcRn9fKldPQslHh3XZu9l7rlZAITvtyt8GQ/s1600/process.png" height="452" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I drag-n-dropped the root folder of my music collection weighing in at about 10 gigs onto the program's window, and once it scanned the tracks I pressed Apply Changes, and <i>voila</i>: the albums now take just 7 gigs total in size so now I can put most of them on my 8 Gb iPhone. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I just can't help sharing this: the extremely annoying update-your-version-of-Skype reminders CAN be disabled after all. Like many users, I've tried all "legitimate" ways to get rid of the pesky alerts, but whatever alert settings you change, they still pop up. Apparently, MS desperately wants us to download every update of Skype, which increasingly turns into bloatware.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">However, the way to turn the reminders off does exist. Some users have noted that whenever a new version of Skype comes out, the program downloads it into a temp folder under the name SkypeSetup.exe. Upon finishing the download it pops up the aggravating alert, and does it again after every other action you perform in Skype. So the way to get rid of it is, basically, to create a file with the same name and make it read-only.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So, the steps to do it, <b>method 1</b> (manual):</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">1. Go to the %TEMP% folder:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">* Open any Windows folder</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">* Type <i>%temp%</i> in its path (address) bar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">* Press Enter</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">2. Locate SkypeSetup.exe in the folder (if the file is not present, check out the %TMP% folder the same way) and delete the file</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">3. Create a dummy empty SkypeSetup.exe in the %temp% folder:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">* Right click in the folder</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">* Select Create, Text document</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">* Type SkypeSetup.exe in the filename field</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">* Press Enter, and Ok the warning</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">4. Right click the file you have just created, select Properties, Security, Advanced, Change Permissions, Add</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">5. Type the word Everyone in the "Enter the object names" field, then press Ok</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">6. Now select Everyone, and check the "Full Control - Deny" checkbox. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Press Apply, then Ok the warning question and the dialog.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There you go: from now on your Skype would be able neither to download its updates nor to display the maddening pop-up windows!</span></span></div>
<div>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
</ol>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You can also do everything above with the <b>method 2</b> (automatic):</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">1. Create a </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">fixskype.bat</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> file consisting of the following two lines:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">NUL>%temp%\SkypeSetup.exe</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: medium;">Icacls.exe %temp%\SkypeSetup.exe /deny All:F</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">2. Run the batch file under an admin account. This one can also be helpful if you plan to re-create the updates-blocking file regularly (e.g., if you prefer to clear %TEMP% contents on every system startup).</span></span></div>

Why would one need Unicode playlists anyway? Well, I download lots of music, and not all of the artists and track names fit into the ASCII character set. There is not too many playlist creation programs out there, and some of the existing ignore folders with non-ASCII names, like this one:<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQhyNK9kQ1wwQnAMmVnI9pETdXM-XYLYnVY390bGTUDNilyfL2i9jYvMzx9Jm3cPv_Or0AqqIYA1ouHwA398sjimZkSFrYLmp_EIcBZwOojYk5dKQjdYzrWug588lEF9gCg3i8Czvz_54/s1600/unicode_album.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQhyNK9kQ1wwQnAMmVnI9pETdXM-XYLYnVY390bGTUDNilyfL2i9jYvMzx9Jm3cPv_Or0AqqIYA1ouHwA398sjimZkSFrYLmp_EIcBZwOojYk5dKQjdYzrWug588lEF9gCg3i8Czvz_54/s1600/unicode_album.png" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Note the Unicode symbols in the folder's name and MP3 file names</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
Luckily, the latest version of the highly automated mp3 tagger <a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">taghycardia</a>, which I already wrote about previously, comes to help: the version 0.99.3 has an integrated configurable Unicode Playlist Generator. Not only it recursively creates Unicode (.m3u8) playlists for MP3 folder trees, but also offers some useful options.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsqCGp01NCkiffAPm6_7rSurDzlLzBirbZcXV42UMNrE1hEWAuFvN347QyNwIuhaiBlGWUmqdhbpqd-Xy_6waS1B_gFXOGs5Brid1Pa_HZTZpohFc8zqCIq0wVVUOp93wnikaGLdOHqts/s1600/playlist_generator.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsqCGp01NCkiffAPm6_7rSurDzlLzBirbZcXV42UMNrE1hEWAuFvN347QyNwIuhaiBlGWUmqdhbpqd-Xy_6waS1B_gFXOGs5Brid1Pa_HZTZpohFc8zqCIq0wVVUOp93wnikaGLdOHqts/s1600/playlist_generator.png" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
First, you can limit the number of tracks to include in a playlist from each album. Those could be either the first <i>N</i> tracks of a folder or <i>N</i> tracks chosen randomly from each of the folders.<br />
<br />
Second, you can avoid including introductory tracks in playlists. Sometimes, the first track of an album is an "intro" that is intended by an artist to set the mood for what you are about to hear, but when you need to taste several albums quickly, you often don't have time or desire to listen to the prelude tracks. So, taghycardia's Playlist Generator is able to skip track #1 of an album while creating a list whenever the first song is called "Intro" or its duration is shorter than two minutes, which too could indicate it is being an introduction.<br />
<br />
Note that in addition to Foobar, m3u8 playlists are supported by Media Player Classic, and a number of other other modern media playing software.</div>

I'm about to post an article at Hubpages.com on a solution to the problem of continuous HTTP requests monitoring in a home WLAN using Wireshark/tshark. The solution circumvents the issue of Wireshark's memory overuse and is completely based on freely available software. I just haven't decided yet where to host the source code and binary for a simple log analyzer that I've written for the solution. I need to place direct links to both the code and .exe in the article. Any suggestions?</div>

We've all been there: drag and drop a compilation mp3 album in iTunes, upload it to an iPhone, and "Oh God, I forgot to set the effing Part of a Compilation checkbox for every track again": there are as many identical albums on your device as you had tracks in the folder. Scouring the Internet for a solution that could set the compilation flag automatically (there MUST be something, i thought), I didn't find anything until I ran into a simple free utility called <a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">Taghycardia</a>. Moreover, it seems like this is THE ONLY solution to this simple problem out there. So, why not give it a try. Installing was a breeze. I just pressed Next a few times, and a Settings Wizard appeared.<br />

I indicated that I'd like to "ensure the accessibility of downloaded MP3 albums on an iPod/iPhone" and to "Add Process with taghycardia to Windows Explorer menu" as I hoped to use the thingy on my music folders regularly. Leaping ahead, I wasn't mistaken.<br />
<br />
Then I chose the compilation folder I desperately wanted to put on my iPhone in one piece, brought up the Windows Explorer context menu with a right click, and chose "Process with :: taghycardia :: ". Note the smart use of colons - you wouldn't confuse the item with anything else:)<br />

Bingo! According to the options I set, it detected that this IS a compulitaion, and that I need to put it as a single album on my iPhone! I pressed <b>Apply Changes</b>, and a few moments later I transferred the album onto my device, all the tracks accessible together under a <b>single</b> "VA - Sounds From The Matrix 14" item in the Albums menu! In addition, the program found the cover art for the compilation and embedded into the tracks.</div>

For the users of <a href="http://taghycardia.info/" target="_blank">taghycardia</a> who find the program's internal mass tag editor undocumented, here's how to use the feature to clarify metadata for an album with messy tags. First, we point the program to the album using the "<b>[. . .]</b>" button at the top, then press <b>Go</b> button:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

As you can see, the tracks in fact have no titles, and the track numbers are a mess. In addition, the Album field is empty. Let's try to correct all of this using the <b>Mass edit tags</b> button.<br />

<br />
Taghycardia has detected the release successfully, so we press <b>Ok</b>.<br />
<br />

<br />
Now, we are able to get cover art for the release. Press <b>Get Art </b>button.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
The art is loaded. Now, for track titles. Pressing the <b>Get tracklist</b> button.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Taghycardia offers the track list for the release complete with track numbers. Note that the program performs fuzzy match: for the selected track, it chose the correct track list item despite the typo in the file name. Everything seems Ok, so we press <b>Use</b>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Now we have the right track titles and numbers, as well as the cover art. Press <b>Apply Changes</b> to write the modifications physically into the tags and then <b>Close</b> to close the editor.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Note that the program has removed the changes scheduled for the folder as we had made some modifications manually. Let's try rescanning the folder to see if it has any other tag errors left. To do that, press <b>Go</b> button. Now everything looks good, all mp3s in the folder have Album and Artist, as well as track numbers. As I have configured the program to rename folders and add track numbers to filenames, it schedules that for the album, so I press <b>Apply Changes</b> to perform the operations. Now the album is thoroughly tagged complete with embedded cover art.<br />

<a href="http://taghycardia.info/">Taghycardia</a> is a little free Windows app that is intended mainly to get downloaded mp3 albums ready for putting on iPhones. However, it also turned out to have a nice Auto Cover Art Download and Embed function.<br />
<br />
Here's a small how-to for using the feature. First, you need to enable auto cover art fixing by setting the flags "Auto fix missing cover art" and "Use Cover Art form Discogs":<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_hawRlHc09yl730uh3D2G19FJ4J9gazULLJnbXcThmsvhdh2q38NRlzz7gD423a051z1YCIqgoPzZDvgiiJ6h_1bDO3UwGXrFSresNRSqwGqrqm9F6PMH_yMZ_TkJhx24xtT4qb8Tb0w/s1600/settings.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_hawRlHc09yl730uh3D2G19FJ4J9gazULLJnbXcThmsvhdh2q38NRlzz7gD423a051z1YCIqgoPzZDvgiiJ6h_1bDO3UwGXrFSresNRSqwGqrqm9F6PMH_yMZ_TkJhx24xtT4qb8Tb0w/s1600/settings.png" /></a></div>
<br />
Next, choose the root folder of your mp3 collection and press Go. The program will start traversing mp3 folders trying to get art for the tracks that lack embedded pictures. Finally, it shows its synopsis:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Now you just have to press Apply Changes, and the program will embed cover art it found online (or locally) into the tags that didn't have images.</div>
