Tags and Tagging

Posted by: The Meerkat on 22 December 2013

Hi everyone

 

I need to tag/re tag about 300 albums that were previously ripped using a UnitiServe SSD, and stored on a NAS. I have tried XLD, but it wants me to type each individual track of each album, which as you can imagine will take me a lifetime. (Have you seen the way I type!) I tried the demo version of Metadatics, but that comes with no step by step instructions, so no idea how to use that one. I have downloaded Jriver Media Center which is great, but I don't think you can export the files back to the NAS drive.

 

Is there tagging software that can be used with a Mac, that has step by step instructions? Most of the available tagging software keeps referring to MP3 Tags. I don't wan't to tag MP3 files, I want to tag WAV and FLAC files. As mentioned above, I am a Mac user.

 

Thanks guys....Merry Christmas!

Perhaps an unfortunate name, but MP3tag will tag flac, at least on Windoze. It is a decent tool and will tag using the file name, a start at least. It also provides basic scripting which I have found useful. So, don't dismiss it based solely on its' name, try it, it's free.

 

 

Hi timster

 

I'd love to try it, but as far as I am aware, it's only for Windows. I am a Mac user.

 

Cheers
