GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 122918
better tag editing.
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Hi, I am trying out rhythmbox, and so far its pretty cool. However, I'm a big fan of the kde jukebox software 'juk' - especially its tag editing.. Have a look here: http://developer.kde.org/~wheeler/images/juk/juk-default.png I'd really like to be able to have that dialogbox down the bottom to edit tags. The dialog could be hideable... More importantly, however, when you have multiple tracks selected - all fields that are common to them are changeable, all others are greyed out. If you change one of the common ones, it changes that tag in all mp3's. Eg, If I select all of my tracks that are by the artist 'Beatles', I could then go down and change the artist to 'The Beatles'. If a field is not common over all of the tracks, I can still change it - there is a button you can click to 'enable' editing of that field. The other cool (but less so) feature, is the ability to modify tags inline - eg in the track list, if you right click on a track, the menu will have an 'edit' command, pressing the edit command causes whichever field you are over to be editable. Thanks heaps for your software! I'm using version 0.5.3 (not in the bugzilla version thing). David
I'm also using 0.5.3 and can't figure out how to edit tags at all. I go to "Properties" and there are text entry boxes for files that were imported incorrectly into my library, but I can't edit them. So I have a file like, say, music/Pixies/death_to_the_pixies_(disc_1)/nimrods_son.ogg and It's listed as the album "Unknown" by "Unknown" and I can't change that at all. This should be editable.
