Mp3 tag editing?


Hi i am new with multimedia applications in linux. This period i am trying to edit my mp3 and flac files with some programmes.

I have tried easytag and i am not very satisfied!

I want a programme that can edit multiples mp3 files at once. For example a)select 20 tracks b)Change genre to classical and c)save changes to all edited files

Do u have anything in mind?

You can try amarok. You can do multiple tag editing with it (and not just of mp3 files). It also has a lot of other cool features.

Cheers,

easytag is great, edits multiple files no problem.

Another option is eyeD3. It manages multiple files at once, as well:
Code:
eyeD3 -G Classical *.mp3

Another option: Picard. A python based tagger.
