General question about importing files

This is a noobie question.

I have mp3 files that are supplied to me. They seem to be properly tagged because when I get info in iTunes I see the title, preacher, date and the church logo.

Is there a way when I import these files that this information will automatically populate the data fields in the Sermon Browser plugin? Perhaps I missed something but it seems that if the data is in the mp3 it should transfer over to WordPress without re-keying that information. Anyway, I'm hoping that I simply missed a step. I didn't see mention of this in the tutorials. Thank you.

Greetings and welcome.  Upload your MP3s to your Sermon Browser upload directory.  Then sign in to WordPress, and on the left side, under "Sermons", click on "Files".  You'll see a section called, "Unlinked Files" along with the file names for all the MP3s that you have uploaded but which have not been linked to a sermon.  To the right of each file name you will see a link called, "Create Sermon".  Click that and it will create a new sermon using the tags.  I use it all the time.
