Don't think I am ever going to go through and tag them all, and anyway,
i make up different genres based on mood, so when I come up with "80's
relaxing classic rock" I don't want to retag everything...
Thanks very much for the help though, since I tagged all the "non music"
to something and exclu

I have at least 10! (but I'm retagging now so I can retag again at
retirement... ;-)
(and I'll ask that a HDD, windows laptop, and mp3tag be included in my
casket for later updates)

To be honest when i first ripped my collection of ~500 i did not have
the energy or patience for tagging, and hoped the tagging of the ripper
db would be ok.
Now I've added some itunes, amazon and others, It's getting a bit mad,
but I really don't use genres. Hence I did not think of that as a w

Ok, that's what I thought in the first place.

I don't understand why you have to end up with hundreds of genres. If
you have a good tagging tool you should be able to easily clean that up.

You can't really do that. Everything that LMS plays must be in its
library. If you exclude

Yes, I saw how the first solution could work, however it requires that I
remember to tag all my material as it's added.

I have folders
1. FLAC Music
2. MP3 Music
3. Other Audio
I would like that 1 and 2 are in the library, but that I could browse to
3, in order to manually select the files.

tracks, however browse folders only
