What is Reddit's opinion of Mp3tag?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

mp3tag is my favourite. (Not just for mp3 files, though that's how it started.)

It includes the options to convert file name to tag and vice versa (with patterns), setting the same tag value for a group of files, and dragging an image from a web browser window straight into your cover picture.

If you want to keep using plexamp try out https://www.mp3tag.de/en/index.html I use this to convert the id3 tags into the folder names and filename in the structure required by Plex. This application is super useful and does most of the hard work for you.

Nothing that I know of. You'd need some sort of script that deletes the first embedded cover in an audio file and keeps the second one. Maybe Mp3tag has something like that?

You can tag this with a tagger like mp3tag or any other that can edit MP4 metadata fields. Not from within iTunes/Music itself, unfortunately.

Technical background: this info can only be tagged in MP4 files (AAC, Apple Lossless), not mp3 files. The MP4 metadata atoms are ownr and purd, more info here.

You may need to get an mp3 tag editor, and fix the tags and then re-upload. I don't think the GPM tag editor shows all the tags.

The great thing about this app is you can open all the files, select them all at once, and change the artist, album artist, etc to whatever you want. Should be able to fix the issue on every track pretty quickly.

I understand. I didn't realize the issue is more complex than I thought. Well, if you're open to exploring other audio taggers, I would suggest looking into MP3Tag. I've been using it myself for over a decade now. There is an initial learning curve, but the documentation is thorough, and their online forum is very helpful too. I'm about 99% sure you could accomplish what you want with a custom "Convert->Tag - Filename" template or a custom Action in MP3Tag, to affect only filenames or tags as you wish.

Regarding your first question. Substreamers offline mode doesn't work like you think. So, in offline mode it simply does not connect with the server, i.e. you can only play songs you have already played once and that is therefore cached on your device (including music that you starred or that you selected as offline available beforehand). Thus for your testing you should not select offline mode.

In order to have a 100% Raw file, you have to disable transcoding in navidrom (upper right corner on the person icon -> Transcoding -> checkboxes shouldn't be checked). Further you should set max bitrate to no limit and stream format to original in substreamer. With these two settings, you will certainly not have transcoding (not personally checked in the logs, but I would guess that it should work in that way).

Next question, regarding library managing. Navidrom manages your library with the embedded id3 tags. A popular software to write such tags and manage your library would be mp3tag (https://www.mp3tag.de/en/index.html ). There is no directory mode, it only pays attention to the embedded tags.

Not sure about your options on a Unix-like OS. Maybe id3tool?

I use Mp3tag on Windows, and it will does show what different types of tags a file has. I use it to spot and remove ID3 tags that were appended to FLAC files.

I used to use Winamp and Sonique back in the day, the latter because it seamlessly played back mp3s of track-separated dj-mix albums, and I'm consistently amazed that most modern jukebox software fails to provide this same function nowadays, at least not in a simple way (like a seamless playback checkbox, or something). I also liked Sonique's visualizer.

Edit: btw y'all - if you need to edit the tags of your mp3 library, the best program I've found to do so is called MP3Tag

>Mp3tag is a powerful and easy-to-use tool to edit metadata of audio files.

>It supports batch tag-editing of ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, iTunes MP4, WMA, Vorbis Comments and APE Tags for multiple files at once covering a variety of audio formats.

>Furthermore, it supports online database lookups from, e.g., Discogs, MusicBrainz or freedb, allowing you to automatically gather proper tags and download cover art for your music library.

Did you check Mp3tag ?

Here's some more information about two of the above issues with the Niro UVO entertainment system:

• Albums playing in alphabetical order instead of album order: You can make albums play in album order by using a Windows program like Mp3tag to add sequential numbers in front of each song Title (01, 02, 03, etc.) in the audio file metadata. Mp3tag is capable of numbering the Title for a bunch of songs all at once.
• No way to create playlists: Programs like Windows Media player and Mp3tag are able to create playlist files (essentially lists of songs) that you can put on a flash drive and play in some automobiles, including apparently 2012-era Kias equipped with the UVO system of that time. But the current Kia UVO system does not appear to support playlist files.

I just created a FLAC file and was able to edit the details either directly in Explorer with the details pane visible or by right-clicking and choosing properties of the file.

I normally use https://www.mp3tag.de/en/index.html to handle all my tagging needs though. I wonder if the headers in the file are corrupted or something?

This is happening becuase you have some files with tag versions Explorer does not support. So rather than risk corrupting the file it does nothing. If you want to manage your ID3 tags more efficiently check out Mp3tag
