'Comment' field in ID tag: How to do in 'batch'?
« on: October 08, 2002, 12:48:57 pm »

Hello all.  Am using MJ ver. 8.0.382.  I was just wondering if there is a way to add the same remark to the "comment" field in MP3 tags.  That is, I have say 500 MP3's that I want to add exactly the same remark in the "comment" field under "Properties."   Yeah, I can do this one at a time, but is there a way to do it batch style?

I suspect there is not, but maybe someone can enlighten me as to how to do it either via this program or some other 3rd party app.  TIA!!

Regards,

Moe

I haven't done any batch updates and so am unfamiliar with it. Simply inserting --tc "EAC: Lame 3.92 @ alt pre std" (for example) into your command line should work since all the other tags (ie Artist, Title....) are dynamically edited on a song by song basis. I assume your using an external encoder (LAME).

edit> Didn't read your post thoroughly enough. Your using MJ, songs are already encoded. You could make the 'show' the "Comment" field in Media Library and do a copy and paste. But I'm sure there's something around that will do efficient batch tagging & editing.
