Easy Music Tagger

<< < (2/2)

Steve:
You would probably need to write a custom bit of software to match the files to the tag info and then re-tag them, and it depends on how you match the data to the file how successful it would be, I dont think there is an easy way to do it  :(
A starting point might be to investigate how your old software matched the tag info to the file.

HI Steve.
The old software didn't used tagged files. There was a database the software looks at, the database kept all the relevant info for each file. the file name was the "unique" ID i guess.
i was thinking though, from my limited understanding of your software, would it be correct in thinking that the music tagging software simply adds / edits the ID3 tags of the music files (in the case of .mp3 files as an example) or in the case of .mp4 files the meta data "tags"?
If that's the case, then as long as my music files have correct ID3 tags (I only use .mp3 files for audio) then i should be good to go?
I have found an mp3 tagging program that should allow me to use a text file to add all the id3 tags. and it seems to work with .mp4 files as well.
but that's assuming you don't have to use the easy tagging software explicitly to tag files so they work with the jukebox software?
