I have all my songs on my computer named in exactly the same way "artist - title"  When I load them on the media card in my Tour some of the songs are listed correctly in the "ALL SONGS" list with the album name taken from the folder name.  Others have both the artist and song name in the spot for the song title and (unknown) in the space for the artist.  The song title, artist, and album are shown correctly on the screen when the song is playing.  Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this.  Sometimes I like to just click somewhere in the "ALL SONGS" list and listen to whatever comes up.

the Media application :

tries to fetch information in the ID3tags of the mp3 or the WMA file

displays the filename when there is no ID3tag

in your case, it seems that the person who ripped the song incorrectly filled the ID3tags.

solution: edit the ID3tags for those songs. This can be done easily using Winamp or Songbird or VLC.
