musicbrainztagger is a java command-line application which tags mp3 files using AcoustID and MusicBrainz. musicbrainztagger is written as a command-line application and handles files on a one-by-one basis in order to enable it to handle very large mp3 collections, such as those with 10's or 100's of thousands of files.
musicbrainztagger requires the command-line application fpcalc from AcoustId. You will have to download the application onto your filesystem.
musicbrainztagger takes these command line arguments
- --inputdir. The input location of the mp3 files
- --outputdir. The output location
- --fpcalc. The location of the fpcalc application
- --delete. Delete the input files after processing them
For example:
java -jar musicbrainztagger.jar --inputdir=/home/mymusic --outputdir=/home/mynewmusic --fpcalc=/home/fpcalc
