Hi,

Do you mean Mp3tag calculates the bpm value or it reads it from a tag field that another program made?
First thing is not possible, the second is.

Ok, I ment the first one, because I am using virtual dj software for my DJing and If a download some mp3 on the internet that this software could rename, edit and read the bpm also.
Which is a good bmp software ? Will the bmp of one software differ from another software?
Thanks for your support,
Regards,
