Re: [slim] Fixing tags
Two such tools that I've found for Debian are: Cantus : Gnome tool to mass-rename/tag mp3 and ogg files Cantus is an easy to use tool for tagging and renaming MP3 and OGG/Vorbis files. It has many features including mass tagging and renaming of MP3s, the ability to generate a tag out of the filename, filter definitions for renaming, recursive actions, CDDB (Freedb) lookup (no CD needed), copy between ID3V1 and ID3V2 tags, and a lot more. id3ren: id3 tagger and renamer Tool used to rename batches of mpeg3 files by reading the ID3 tag at the end of the file which contains the song name, artist, album, year, and a comment. The secondary function of id3ren is a tagger, which can create, modify, or remove ID3 tags. The id3 fields can be set on the command line, entered interactively, or "guessed" from the path and the filename. I imagine these tools are also available for other GNU/Linux distributions. I was looking into Cantus for a RH9 box, but it appears that one needs the gtkmm and libglade-mm stuff as a requirement and there are no easy RPMs or binaries for these in RH9. I can take a look at using the Fedora Core 3 versions, but that may get ugly. -MA ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Is there code in slimserver to read tags that could be reused? Since I'm trying to fix multiple file format tags for use with Slimserver it would be nice to be able to pass in a file name and have slimserver code return me the tags that it extracted. That might help me find the files with missing info and to correctly tag files. Also, is the database schema documented someplace? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Fixing tags
Does anyone know of a tool (on linux) that can help assign tags to my various flac/ogg/mp3 files that are not tagged? I have quite a few files that show up as "No Artist" or "No Album" in Slimserver, but it's very obvious from the file name what the artist, song and often album are. I'm imagining a tool that will generate a text file with best guesses and then I could edit and then use that to update/create the tags. I also have quite a few partially tagged files. For example, I was just looking at one that says: Title: Sunshine of Your Love Artist: Cream Album: No Album Genre: Other which would not be too hard to find a few suggestions for the Album and Genre, I'd think.
