Hi and let me suck-up a little and say that mp3tag rocks
I decided to start cleaning my library which so far has all been done manually. Over the years, bout' since 1990, I've accumulated a huge amount of cd's. I decided to back them all up and now that it's done, I wanna fill in the metadata. I have a lot of it done but one thing is a fact, is they are all in separate folders i.e. Artist\YEAR Album\songs . . .
all are sorted like that and all the songs are labeled as follows . . .(01 title.mp3)
but in the metadata, some of the titles are there but some are missing (I've used a bunch of rippers and due to my unfamiliarness to the process, I forgot some important stuff which I now want to fix . . .
so I've gone through my entire library and filled everything including album art, each folder also has the familiar folder.jpg at 500x500 for windows to put the right image icon.
So here goes, what I need done is to fill in the missing titles and the best way is using the filename - tag option I believe . . .
So I've searched and read for the last few hours and come up with this, which works (Thanks goes here for the many posts I have read and got different information from)
I really know nothing of Scripting, Syntax and Expressions
so this is what I have:
filename - tag
%title%
Actions (Quick)
replace with regular expression (enter)
in field, type [title]
in regular expression, type [^.{3}]
in replace matches with: leave blank (enter)
as all my filenames are /per track on each cd in separate folders, all are labeled ## Title
so the above works great.
My main question is this:
Can there be a single button pushed to do all I have above ? (like in excel) ?
That would be greatly appreciated, it's very time consuming as it is.
