Check out www.musicbrainz.org. It uses "signatures" to match up your tracks and apply standardized tagging information and then rename the files with the conventions you specify. While you CAN just let it do its thing, I recommend supervising it as it's not 100% perfect. -- jeffluckett ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jeffluckett's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31739 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
