NAME¶
puddletag - puddletag
SYNOPSIS¶
puddletag [
options] [
directory path]
DESCRIPTION¶
puddletag is an audio tag editor (primarily created) for GNU/Linux similar to
the Windows program, Mp3tag. Unlike most taggers for GNU/Linux, it uses a
spreadsheet-like layout so that all the tags you want to edit by hand are
visible and easily editable.
The usual tag editor features are supported like extracting tag information from
filenames, renaming files based on their tags by using patterns and basic tag
editing.
Then there're Functions, which can do things like replace text, trim it, do case
conversions, etc. Actions can automate repetitive tasks. You can import your
QuodLibet library, lookup tags using Amazon (including cover art), Discogs
(does cover art too!), FreeDB and MusicBrainz. There's quite a bit more, but
I've reached my comma quota.
Supported formats: ID3v1, ID3v2 (mp3), MP4 (mp4, m4a, etc.), VorbisComments
(ogg, flac), Musepack (mpc), Monkey's Audio (.ape) and WavPack (wv).
