those damn id3 tags

Recommended Posts

heheh here's the story. all my mp3s were scattered all over the harddrive. so I downloaded the godfather to get em organized. works great.

but.

there is an id3 tag editor and I have quite a few messed up tags so I give it a try. but I messed up. now over 1000 mp3's have the same id3 tag.

pretty messed up right? right!

manually editing those mp3s is gonna take forever but I might have found something useful.

musicbrainz.org is kinda like cddb but for mp3s and has a auto tagging program. I am running it right now and it has found about a 3rd of my mislabeled tags so far. I chalk the rest up to my obscure music tastes.

check it out if you have a need.

i labeled all of my mp3s by hand... click here to see the list. i have a narrow selection by choice, mind you. also: the mp3 filename matches the tag as it's displayed in foobar with all the ['s, ]'s, and numbers.

Would any of those tools rename the filenames to the ID3 Tags? because i went through and fixed all my tags manually, but alot of them are named like

Yes, MP3Tag does that too, among other neat things.
