Here's the situation: I recently finished a month of converting over my entire collection to MP3, using MJ exclusively. As I'm going through the library, I'm finding some problems. To wit, that some files seem to have had their tags (particularly the genre tag) properly filled, others didn't. HOW this happened is probably worthy of another discussion, but that's all academic now.
I'd like to run a batch on the whole collection and have the tags updated from CDDB if possible. Since all the extant information was filled from CDDB in the first place, this seems doable, but I'm not sure I see how in MJ.
I know that sometimes the CDDB info comes up short. This is not the case. In experimenting, each time I came across an album that didn't have its genre information tagged, I used File-Properties-Tools-Get Information From CDDB, and the missing information was magically there. I've also re-ripped a couple of the same tracks to see what would happen, and again, magically it got filled the second time. Very strange.
I am aware of how to do mass tagging or recategorizing using the other tools, but this is different. We're talking about 23gb of files where some are missing information and some aren't. As far as I understand right now, I can only get the proper re-tagging to happen one file at a time.
That would suck.
Is there a way to do this, run a batch instead of have to update one file at a time?
Thanks.
