Make sure to check your .sm files for unnecessary tags that can prevent them from loading on itg before you load up your USB drive.

#SELECTABLE - if this is "NO" or "ROULETTE", your song won't be displayed. Make sure it's "YES", or just delete this tag altogether.

#SONGLENGTH - I've only seen this in one of my .sm files. This tag was something like 146 (over two minutes) even though the unpatched .ogg was only a minute and a half long. itg refused to load the song untill I deleted this tag.

Also if you care about tracking your stats, make sure the song titles and folder names don't have non-standard characters, like greek or japanese letters, or your stats.xml file may become unreadable, and since a fuxored stats file can't be edited because of the checksum, you'll be SOL and have to just delete it and start over. Found this out the hard way with Plaguefox's Bitches - muziq mix, because muziq was spelled with the greek letter "mu" on the song folder.
