Title: Automate tagging for non-media files
Post by: anotheruser on August 21, 2023, 06:17:30 pm
Hello,

has someone developed a method to automatically tag non-media files?

My directory structure going in is:

/Artist/Album

/Artist may contain image files or other non-audio files

/Artist/Album contains .flac files with proper tags plus non-media files like images or PDFs.

Let’s say I want to tag cover-large.jpg and cover-small.jpg contained in /Artist/Album.

The fields I want to populate for non-media files are [Album], [Artist], [Album Artist], [Genre], if the file is in the /Artist/Album directory.

And then, for files in the /Artist folder I only want to populate [Artist], [Album Artist], [Genre].

Can MC access the tags contained in a chosen .flac file relative to the non-media file? If yes, how?

If this is possible, the first .flac in /Artist/Album would suffice. In case there are multiple Album directories under the Artist directory the first sub-directory /Artist/Album would be sufficient.

Thank you very much in advance.  :)
