I have this collection of mp3s from the 90s-2000s from before the streaming services era. Back when people used Winamp or XMMS to listen to their music. I backed up my music files in two places and they’re both organized differently.
I need a tool to go through the whole thousands of files, find out what each track is (artist, album, track title, track number all that meta data), rename the file accordingly and apply all the metadata, then move the file in a certain directory structure.
Are there any music organizers out there that can do this? Or do I have to implement my own script?
Ah interesting point, I’ve only done this when importing new songs, not to an entire library. Usually drag my new files from a file browser into a new playlist then I select then all and right click, then hit “move to library” which brings up a dialog that allows you to define your folder structure and naming conventions
Ah ok. Maybe I’ve done it the wrong way. I’ll try again.
