Export/Import tags
« on: February 09, 2013, 09:41:20 am »
When I have imported some music files that do not support storing tags, is there a way to export the tags from the database so I can import it on another pc running MC?

Select files, Export Playlist as MPL.
Move the MPL file to the new computer and Import Playlist.
If files are in different location on new computer I think you can manually edit the MPL file.

I never realized that would actually import tags ... thanks.

I used to do it with a file and folder rename and do a fill properties from filenames on the other end. It works well for basic fields but its not very handy for carrying over a lot of fields.

MPL is JRiver's special playlist that contains tags.
Standard playlists like m3u do not have any tag information.
