http://www.howtoforge.com – Tag Sound Files With Easytag (Linux Mint 12) This tutorial is supposed to show you how to change your sound files' information like artist or title, also called tags, in a fast way using Easytag. I am using Linux Mint 12 as an operating system, however the steps should not differ greatly from other Ubuntu based distributions. Easytag is only capable of tagging MP3, MP2, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, MP4/AAC, MusePack or Monkey's Audio files. (HowTos)

Stories similar to Tag Sound Files With Easytag (Linux Mint 12)

Easytag doesn't seem to handle tags with numbers very well. If my genre is 80's or 80s, it displays folk. And for 90's or 90s it displays 'avantgarde'. Amarok sees the correct tag 80's and 90's. Even when I change it with easytag, it goes back to folk and avant garde when easytag reloads. As a workaround I will use 'eighties' and 'nineties' but I wonder what the problem is...

Via the web page I can see that my files sync to U1 cloud servers. For the mp3 files, there seems to be a problem that several questions have already addressed but there does not seem to be a clear answer. If I use EasyTAG 2.1.6, I can see the ID3 tags on the local files and they seem to correctly define the artist, album title and track name.

The title explains it all. When I minimize the easytag application, it disappears instead of going to the dock

Add tags to an Ogg Opus file 30 weeks 6 days ago

I usually tag Ogg Vorbis files with EeasyTAG 2.1.7.

Now, I want to produce Ogg Opus files, and I'm not able to write tags into the file. EasyTAG bears about Ogg file not having a vorbis or a speex stream.

Another tools, such as lltag, spits messages like "Skipping this file with unknown type."

Some advice? Thanks.

I have three mp3 tag editors, but I have never used any before. EasyTAG, ExFalso, MusicBrainzPIcard I'd like to learn all about them, but right now I just need to do one thing: Batch many mp3 with Artist (don't care about other info for now) I can group the files in folders if that helps (all same artist in one folder) I made a huge mistake years ago (before I had mp3 player) and have many files

I just downloaded and installed Linux Mint 13 Maya ( the MATE edition) today and I think I really like it. However, one problem occured that when I tried to play some music with Banshee, there was no sound at all.

A tag editor (or tagger) is an application which allows users to edit metadata of multimedia files. Metadata is the data about the audio data. It lets information about the audio file such as the title, artist, conductor, album, track length, lyrics, embedded images, and other information be stored in the audio file itself.
