Besides these main features Mp3tag offers a variety of other functions and features ranging
ranging from batch export of embedded album covers, over support for iTunes-specific tags like
media type or TV Show settings, to combining multiple actions into groups that can be applied
with a single mouse click.
Mp3Tag will allow us to really get into the details of our mp3 files
and will even automatically retrieve details and album art from the
web. Being able to pull all the album information from a source like
Amazon.com is a sure time saver. Once the program has been downloaded
and installed getting tag information couldn’t be much simpler.
Start
out by going to the File menu and selecting “Add Directory” to bring up
a dialog to choose your music folder. Mp3Tag will then go about loading
your music collection and displaying any details about your music it
can find. Once it’s finished that select the songs or album you want to
change the album art (or other details) for on the right.
Notice
the missing album art in the screenshot above, this is what we’re
looking to fix. To do this open the “Tag Sources” menu at the top and
select a location for Mp3Tag to retrieve the new album cover and details
from. Choosing Amazon.com will generally return good results. You will
need to tell the program what search term to use while finding the album
then select the correct one from the next dialog that comes up.
If
the correct album isn’t listed in the results go back and try a
different search term or a different source from the menu. Once you have
found the correct album another dialog will appear showing the details
retrieved. Here you are able to edit the information before it’s applied
to the files. By default track numbers will not be altered but check to
make sure the songs listed on the left are the same ones listed on the
right. The order of the songs listed won’t make a difference.
Once
the information is all correct and the album cover is shown in the
right hand box press OK to save the information to the files. If you
would like to store a folder.jpg of the album cover locally there is an
option to do so under the “Utils” button on the bottom left. Once you’ve
returned to the main window you should see the results of the edit
displayed on the left.
