i'm a foobar2000 user as well, but I do use tags a lot as I use the facets component.
Install mp3tag. Open folders of interest (or even all folders if your naming structure is really good....obviously test a bit first). with selected files in your active window in mp3tag, right click, select them, then choose "convert" from upper menu, then "filename > tag" This allows you to enter a string that captures the data you want from the file name or directory location and move that to various things (like album, track #, etc. Hard to describe here, and it may take a bit to get the hang of how it works, but if you play around you'll figure it out. There is a "help" button on the popup, and there are scripting functions as well. If you're only talking about a few dozen CDs that you want to identify the master source, I'd simply open the CDs in mp3tag, right click on the album tracks, and edit the album name. -- garym *Location 1:* VB Appliance 6TB (1.10) > LMS 7.7.1 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Location 2:* VB Appliance 3TB (2.0) > LMS 7.7.1 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win7(64) > LMS 7.7.1 > SqueezePlay Retired: SB3, Duet Receiver Controllers: iPhone (iPeng), iPad (iPengHD & SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.7 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Additional Tagging - mp3tag ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93984 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
