I am trying to find a program (for windows) that will automatically scan all my music files, and replace all of the IDv3 tags with the correct values, and album art (if possible). Most of my tags are incorrect, or have weird variables in them too like the year, or incorrect album information.

Has anyone found a program that can do this? I've used, and tried the following programs in the past and nothing has worked, or sets albums as compilations, rather than the actual album they came from.

  • MusicBee
  • MP3 Tagger
  • Mass Tagger
  • Tag & Rename
  • Magic MP3 Tagger
  • Robot Butler
  • MusicBrainz Picard
  • TagScanner
  • Sound Maven
  • MP Tagger
  • MP3 Tag

Among a few other, open source ones I can't recall right now. I have racking my brain for the last few weeks to find a program to do this for me, with over 80,000 songs I do not have time time, or energy to go through and do this.

Some of these programs will get the artist and title correct, but are way off on other things like year, lyrics, composer, etc.

Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

  • I wouldn't say this is a dup if i've tried the program they marked as the answer and it didn't work for me.

  • i would not call this a product request, i'm merely asking if other users have had better luck with what I've had no luck with.

    Just because the answer(s) aren't what you need, doesn't make it a different question. Besides, you are not going to find a program that's 100% accurate for 100% of files, as the DBs out there are not 100% accurate, plus there's compilations, release dates for re-releases, etc., etc. Getting perfect metadata is going to take some time and effort. Waiting until you had 80K files to do was a mistake. ;)

    @ Brad J Trammell You say it hasn't worked for you. I think you should clarify your exact requirement in terms of how the program should work. Especially because my experience with at least 2 programs you mention has been extremely good. They fetch the data from cddb/other, so getting the data wrong is extremely unlikely.
