Musort
Ogranize your music library. A Python3 program that renames all selected music/audio files in a folder with a specified naming convention. Names are generated from the metadata (ID3) from the audio files. Before using this program, use a metadata editor like MusicBrainz Picard, Beets or EasyTAG to add the correct metadata to the audio files.
Features
- Rename many audio files at once
- Rename all files in subdirectories as well (recursive)
- Choose the naming convention (ex. track.title.flac or artist.track.year.mp3)
- Give a separator for the naming of the file (ex. track.title.flac or track_title.flac)
- Works on all systems that can run Python
- Supported audio formats
- MP3/MP2/MP1 (ID3 v1, v1.1, v2.2, v2.3+)
- Wave/RIFF
- OGG
- OPUS
- FLAC
- WMA
- MP4/M4A/M4B/M4R/M4V/ALAC/AAX/AAXC
- AIFF/AIFF-C
