The Genre “folder” you see is actually a list made from what the Fuze reads from the ID3 tag in the file, part of the mp3 file. So are Album, Artist, Song, etc. The only actual folders are the ones you can read if you scroll all the way down Music to Folders.
You can insert your own Genre tags. If you’re on Windows, get the free program mp3tag. Apple has its own tag editors, but you’ll have to track one of those down on your own.
Install mp3tag. When you install, let it add itself to context menus (an option while installing).
Open mp3tag and in Tools/Options/Tags/Mpeg make the Write option ID3v2.3 ISO-8859-1. Those are the Fuze’s favorite tags.
Now right-click on an album folder, highlight the list of songs and you can label them whatever Genre you want in one of the boxes on the left, and then Save Tag. You can use genres from the list or invent your own. If you want to label all your death metal tracks Pretty Rainbows or Happy Smiling Flowers, no one will know.
Another thing you should do, while you have the tags listed in playing order top to bottom, is click Tools/Auto-Numbering Wizard and the Leading Zeroes option. That will number the tracks, 01,02, etc. If the Tracks are numbered, 1, 2, 3…11, 12 then the Fuze will play 1, 11, 12, 2, 3, 4…it needs that zero.
You should do the Track thing with every album anyway before sending it over, because when you save the tags for numbering it will also make them ID3v2.3 ISO-8859-1.
The Fuze has trouble with some other tag versions, and there is no universal tagging standard.
