Mass rename music library how to#

I’ll briefly show how to edit the Title of some files all at once - what is known as batch processing. The following figure shows the options available:įigure 1 – Options available through the Actions menu button One of the best features of Mp3tag is the Actions menu button that let’s you replace text within any MP3 tag field using simple find and replace or more advanced regular expressions. Mp3tag supports online database lookups from, e.g., Amazon, discogs, or freedb, allowing you to automatically gather proper tags and cover art for your music library.

It can rename files based on the tag information, replace characters or words in tags and filenames, import/export tag information, create playlists and more. Mp3tag is a powerful and yet easy-to-use tool to edit metadata of common audio formats where it supports ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, iTunes MP4, WMA, Vorbis Comments and APE Tags. I got to know a free yet powerful small application called Mp3tag that allows the execution of various commands against MP3 metadata. To overcome such situation I started looking for a piece of software that could resolve this misinformation.

Last.fm tries to help us correcting wrong MP3 tags, but corrections are only visible online and they don’t change MP3 metadata, that is, you still have wrongly tagged MP3 residing in your music library. I keep a timeline of music I listen to at Last.fm. If you use to listen to MP3 music you know what I’m talking about. It’s always good to keep things organized even more when it comes to MP3 files.
