I have a collection of mp3's from my CD's, all ripped at 192, and with the original FreeDb tag's corrected and customized.
Now I want to re-rip those cd's at 320, but would like to re-use the old tags after ripping and new FreeDb-download.
Can this be done ?
I tried the export, but always get an error there, nevertheless I didn't see any Import
Thanks

Just load both the 192 kbps and the 320 kbps files, select all old files and copy the tags using the [Ctrl+C] keyboard shortcut. Then select all new files and paste the tags using the [Ctrl+V] keyboard shortcut.
Kind regards,
Florian
