To identify content which may contain multiple artists which i want to formally edit for a separator that mb3 understands. Move Content into the collection- either into the standard album artists location or respecting a manually defined 'rootfolder' valueĪction 6b - Various artists, includes the artist name in the filename. (This action also doesnt add a year prefix to folder for album - my preference for compilations)Īnd as a final separate suggestion i have used this mp3tag filter (F3) Set common 'rootfolders' on myfilesystem if required.Ħa/b. Universal - universal tidy up function which removes trailing and leading spaces and also removes all unused tags including albumart (I dont store albumart in the file).ĥ. Ignore - intended for use with mp3 music brainz fetcher plugin.no longer necessary with picard.ģ. Remove tags - No action as such/a reminder to use file menu-remove tags command.to remove all unused mp3 tag formats (i have mp3tag configured in options to only keep 1 type of id3 tag - i use only ID3v2 UTF-16, as all my clients are compatable with this format) (not for use on flacs in current version)Ģ. I also add this tag as a column in the main pain for easy searching and filtering etc.Īctions have been tested in use 1 at a time, not 'all in one go'.ġ. I configure mp3tag->options-> tag panel to show my custom tag 'rootfolder'. You might want to put a prefix in the filenames so they are easily identifiable as the newly installed actions (filenames show up in the mp3tag actions menu) Note i use an action to remove and from track/tracktotal and disknumber/disctotal as in previous versions at least, my clients including mb3 did not like - this is necessary for the actions to work.Īdd the files to current 'actions' folder in user mp3tag appdata (roaming). If the album artist is 'Various artists' then i add the artist name as a suffix to the filename on filesystem by using action 6b. (i find them easier to find in explorer, makes no odds to mb3 tag views as tags are not changed) Title.Ĭontent for Album Artists with 'The ' prefix are stored on the filesystem as 'artist, the'. Title.Ĭontent with a rootfolder tag of \Soundtracks\ (note leading and trailing slashes) is moved into W:\MUSIC \Soundtracks\(Year) Album\Tracknumber. I use the tag 'rootfolder' to hardcode a location into files which do not confirm to the standard (automated) location on the filesystemĪ standard location for a file without 'rootfolder' tag is defined as W:\MUSIC\Albumartist\(Year) Album\Tracknumber. My Conventions (You might have other preferences)Ĭheck the actions for hardcoded paths which you will want to change to your situation.they currently point to W:\MUSIC In any case they may help you learn to use mp3tag regexp engine (note not an expert, i have just brute forced found something that works without 100% understanding) They include a set of 6 actions which prepare content and move content in a prescribed manner into collection. I use these actions to clean up a music collection, you might find them useful.
