modify tags of the audio files without changing the file?
« on: February 24, 2007, 02:39:36 pm »

Hi,

Is it possible to configure MC12 to modify the tags for audio files without changing the audio file itself? I typically like to change the genre/artist/album/cover art but I do not want the original file to be modified.

thanks,
Osho

You can disable the following option:
Tools > Options > General > Importing & Tagging > Update tags when file info changes.

You may need to disable also the "Update for external changes" auto-import option for making sure that MC does not revert your library only changes:
Tools > Auto-Import Options > Auto-Import Folders > Options > Update for external changes
