Maybe you can hunt down a good ID3 tag editor that does edits in batches, so you can just edit the album and artits names.
When I get back in town that's what I'm going to be hunting for.
I was unable to connect the iPod to the headunit, lost the dual female connection under the center console...and didn't think about it until just now that I could hook back up that dash mount USB port. I'll try that first since it's easier.
ID3 tag seems to be the culprit at this point though, to the best of my knowledge.
