Re: [libreoffice-users] Libre Writer or Excel - File Name List - Pritning

Two programs to help fill and export metadata.


MusicBrainz Picard <http://picard.musicbrainz.org> is a cross-platform 
(Linux/Mac OS X/Windows) application written in Python and is the 
official MusicBrainz <http://musicbrainz.org> tagger.

With *Mp3tag* you can export file and tag information of your audio 
collection to files with user-defined file formats. You can either use 
one of the predefined export configurations to export file information 
to Excel via the CSV export configuration, let Mp3tag create a nicely 
looking HTML playlist with one of the html export configurations or you 
create an export configuration by yourself where you can freely decided 
on the file format and the layout.

An export configuration consists of a unique name, a filename for the 
exported file and the definition of the file format. The file format is 
defined by you, so it's possible to create, e.g., HTML, XML, CSV, batch 
file or LaTeX output.

Mp3tag features a simple template language which can be used to loop 
over artists, albums and arbitrary other tag fields. The tag and file 
informations are represented by placeholders, which are replaced when 
doing the export. You can find an overview of all valid placeholders and 
an example at /Configuration, Export/ 
<http://help.mp3tag.de/options_export.html>.

I have not used Mp3tag, but it should work as claimed.

Picard is excellent, but a bit of patience is greatly rewarded.

Donate if you can.

Hope this helps.

Paul
