id3tag editor

Open yungztrunks opened this issue 4 months ago • 3 comments

is it possible to include id3tag editor ? would be a neat feature, makes managing lots of mp3 files easier as well + just generally a neat feature

i don't think the full capacities of id3 are needed, simple things like song title, album, artist & an uploadable cover cover 99% of use cases

additionally: mp3 files & similiar should be able to display an already assigned album cover? I feel like the spectrograms get distracting

this was added in #252 / v1.19.4, so if you are using v1.19.4 or newer and that's not working then you'll need to delete your thumbnails-cache so the thumbnails are regenerated; find the folder named "th" inside ".hist" and delete the "th" folder

is it possible to include id3tag editor ?

until now, the only feature which can edit/modify files is the markdown editor; I don't really like the idea of modifying files, since they can get permanently damaged if you mess it up. Winamp was a good example, where it would entirely destroy mp3-files if they had a multiline comment in them...

of course, these days something like mutagen should be pretty safe and reliable, but there is still the problem of ID3v1 vs. ID3v2.3 vs. ID3v2.4, and sometimes they have contradicting values, etc, so it's not super simple.

To be clear, I'm not sure I will add this at all, and regardless it probably won't happen the first few years -- but i'll keep the issue open in case 👍
