A Windows or Linux based solution will do.
Use mp3tag. Point it at your whole library (it will take a minute or two to load). Sort by the tag you are interested in. All blank values will be grouped together. You can now see all the files that need attention. Does that help? The "filter" facility of mp3tag is also very helpful when looking for groups of files that need attention. -- ceejay ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ceejay's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=148 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44701 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
