Any software to mass-edit mp3 ID3 tags?

[archcommus]

I've got about 600 songs here I would like to finally make proper ID3 tags for, so I can see their proper info in Winamp's Media Library. Editing them one by one is, well, out of the question. Any software to do mass-editing? Their filenames are already correct to the title of the track, I just need to c&p that somehow into the Title field of the .mp3 - without doing them one by one, of course.

$14 - dbPowerAmp.com mass select addon also good for transcoding from format to format.

Mp3tag will do what you're wanting, and it's free too.

ID3-TagIT works really well and is easy to use - and its Free!

I have used it to take correct file names and put in ID3 rev1 and 2 tag information on many mp3s.

You can read the filenames in large batches ( as long as they are in about the same format ) - like <Artist> - <Album> - <Track> - <Title>.mp3 ( you determine the order) and it will automatically place the names into the ID3 fields you want.

I think MP3tag is great for converting the filename to tags, and vice versa. :thumbsup:

there is an ID3 tag module for perl, you might be able to write some scripts to do things you need.

Mp3tag and ID3-TagIT seem good, thanks!

Just got mp3tag, thanks, I'd been looking for something that could plug filenames into id3s. Now is there anything that'll retag/rename wmas?

MP3Tag should work on WMA files as well.

Cool thanks, hadn't gotten a chance to check yet.

I have been looking for something like this for awhile for the times when I convert a cassette over to mp3's. Thanks!

 

[archcommus]

Definitely thanks for that, I'm done editing all 600 already! It was easy!

Very nice program. I'm so glad I read this thread, made my life so much easier. I have been looking for something like this for a long time (I'm a neat freak).

Ha, me too, buddy.

This should be added in the free apps sticky.

This is one of the first threads I read as a lurker. It helped id3tag my MP3 collection.

Cant believe its that old....
