Tagging with MusicBrainz Picard
As your tango collection grows, the need to get more accurate and consistant meta information increases. To tag your music from an online database greatly reduces your effort.
I prefer using MusicBrainz Picard, as it provides data for my non-tango music as well. The tango.info database provides a wealth of information and a guide for masstagging.
To combine MusicBrainz Picard with genre and recording dates from tango.info, you can use these plugins for MusicBrainz Picard:
tango-info-plugins (zip file with both plugins)
put in the plugins directory of PicardQt together with http://open.tango.info/tracks.csv and enable the tango.info (date) and/or tango.info (genre) plugin under Options.
Some TaggerScript may be useful to customize the formatting of artist etc, and other plugins that I have found useful are Disc Numbers and Cover Art Downloader from http://musicbrainz.org/doc/PicardQt/Plugins.
Hi,
Are the Python scripts still available on your website? The links seem to be broken. Thanks!
Sorry about that.
I’ll fix it later, meanwhileI sent you the files by email.[Edit: Just uploaded a zip file with both plugins]
