ID3 Tagging Shell Script
« on: February 12, 2006, 12:51:41 pm »
Mwhahaha. Another waste of 45 minutes, for something I'll use once or twice more. :P

http://www.newbyproductions.net/downloads/id3tagger.sh

Requirements: bash shell, id3lib (need the id3convert and id3tag binaries)

Code: [Select]
#/bin/bash
# ID3 tagger - written by newby (newbypwns@gmail.com, SPAMMERS BRING IT ON)
# Written with SOME of the terribly-tagged posts on Kerrazy in mind ;)
# Example usage: ./id3tagger.sh "Exodus/Exodus - 1985 - Bonded by Blood" 144
# Folders MUST be in format of: %artist - %year - %album/##-%songname.mp3
# Requirements: bash shell, id3lib (id3lib.sourceforge.net) (for the id3convert / id3tag binaries)
# Will fully tag your mp3s ID3v2 / ID3v1 :)
# Genre MUST be a number, so I included some common genres (again, common with kerrazy in mind) here.
# Feel free to modify/redistribute.
# Genres:
# Metal = 9
# Black Metal  = 138
# Death Metal  = 22
# Heavy Metal  = 137
# Thrash Metal = 144

for i in "$1"/*.mp3
do
        echo "\$i = $i"
        FOLDERNAME=${i#*/}
        FOLDERNAME=${FOLDERNAME%%/*}
        FILENAME=${i##*/}
        ARTIST=${FOLDERNAME%%" -"*}
        ALBUM=${FOLDERNAME##*"- "}
        YEAR=${FOLDERNAME#*" - "}
        YEAR=${YEAR%%" - "*}
        SONG=${FILENAME:3:${#FILENAME}-7}
        NUMBER=${FILENAME:0:2}
        if [ "$2" = "" ]
        then
                GENRE=137
        else
                declare -i GENRE=$2
        fi
        # echo "Foldername: $FOLDERNAME"
        # echo "Filename: $FILENAME"
        # echo "Artist Name: \"$ARTIST\""
        # echo "Album Name: \"$ALBUM\""
        # echo "Year: \"$YEAR\""
        # echo "Song Name: \"$SONG\""
        # echo "Song Number: $NUMBER"
        id3convert --strip "$i"
        id3tag --v2tag --artist="$ARTIST" --album="$ALBUM" --song="$SONG" --year="$YEAR" --track="$NUMBER" --genre="$GENRE" "$i"
        id3tag --v1tag --artist="$ARTIST" --album="$ALBUM" --song="$SONG" --year="$YEAR" --track="$NUMBER" --genre="$GENRE" "$i"
done
Example output of parsing (taken from IRC):

Quote
<b00n> $i = Possessed/Possessed - 1985 - Seven Churches/10-Death Metal.mp3
<b00n> Foldername: Possessed - 1985 - Seven Churches
<b00n> Filename: 10-Death Metal.mp3
<b00n> Artist Name: "Possessed"
<b00n> Album Name: "Seven Churches"
<b00n> Year: "1985"
<b00n> Song Name: "Death Metal"
<b00n> Song Number: 10

Example output of tagging (heavily trimmed with nicely placed grep, warning the actual output is VERY verbose):

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Very nice!  Hehe, saved my Carcass discography from having to be in the 1 - Compressed Albums folder for the rest of its life! :D

Code: [Select]
for i in ArtistName/*; do ./id3tagger.sh "$i"; done
That'll run recursively on a folder as long as it's named correctly. :)

Cool!  My Pantera discography has fucked up ID3 tags too.  I'll rename the directories and see if this fixes it! :)

How hard would it be to write a shell script that recursively renames the filenames?

Pretty hard.

Just stick to using rename on 'em.

Or do something like rename "Pantera - " "" */*.mp3 && rename " - " "-" */*.mp3 to see if that works.

I wouldn't try it unless you make a backup, though.

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=979

windows binaries = id3lib-3.8.3binaries.zip

Oh well. Too bad the bash script isn't portable across OS'.

My bad. It is if you have a bash shell. Too bad you Windows users and your wsh suck.

Someone should port this to batch. :)

EDIT -- Warrior plans to port this to Monad's script language, so we'll see. :)

MediaMonkey for Windows has batch [re]naming and batch [re]tagging, its what I use.  I think there is still a free version or at least a free trial.

I wrote a couple Java programs which automatically convert file structure -> id3 or id3 -> proper file structure.  The two programs are probably:
http://www.javaop.com/~iago/FixId3.jar
http://www.javaop.com/~iago/MoveMP3.jar

The source should be included in the .jar.  They are in no way well written, but I use them all the time.
