Fixing tag genre and year
« on: January 02, 2006, 04:43:40 am »

Greetings,

I'm looking for a way (as automated as possible) to check/fill the tag genre and year of my 80 gb library of mixed mp3, aac, vorbis, flac and ape library.  I neglected those two fields over the years and now it's become unmanageable without them.

I did some searching and something along the lines of this would work:
http://www.krkeegan.com/archives/38-Allmusic-ID3-Tag-Genre-and-Year-Fixer-Status.html#extended

Unfortunately, it only supports mp3, and the project has never been completed.

All the best to all for the New Year.

Use the atagger plugin for MC.

does atagger allow you to selectively choose which fields you want updated? I only want to fill in my missing "year" tags if poss.

Yes, there are checkboxes for which fields you allow it to touch.

Many thanks zxsix, it does exactly what I wanted and more.  :D

I searched so much for something like this on this website and on others, and tried many programs.  It'd be great if JRiver would put it in the plug-in section of its website.

Thanks too Alan, if you read this.

Now I'm going back to my tags...
