Sorry if this has been discussed before guys, but this is one issue that's currently doing my head in :daft:

I usually use Winamp for tagging my tracks as it uses the "Gracenote database" which I have possibly favoured over the years and found to give pretty accurate results. I have also tried Mediamonkey and I use this for various cataloguing and moving digital files around my library etc.

So does anyone have a solution to this query, with using the above mentioned or any solution what so ever

Example

Track - Mandy Artist - Barry Manilow

Now the mentioned comes back as part of the 'Lost boys' soundtrack various artists year 2010

However the actual year of release is 1975
Is there anyway of batch tagging these tracks instead of typing the correct year into the tag manually ?

Any advice is greatly appreciated :)

Isn't there a piece of software called tag and rename?

I have also used that Dar, to be honest it's good for changing name, track, artist, and case conversion etc. But that also tends to use the Amazon database etc :confused:

I use Tag and Rename and find it first class. You can multi file tag, change as many tags as you have in a folder with one click. Great piece of software.
