Hi all,
I’m looking for something to automatically tag some old music files I have sitting around. I’ve been working with Picard, but a lot of albums are not in MusicBrainz, and adding them has been a serious PITA. Is there any kind of software that either:
- Can apply metadata directly from a streaming service (like this script for adding albums to MusicBrainz does)?
- Can simply allow me to manually edit metadata with an interface that isn’t completely awful to use?
or even:
- Two separate tools, one to grab metadata and another to manually add it (maybe a CLI interface for batch operations?)
Appreciative of any advice—I just hope there’s a better way, with how tedious this can be.
EDIT: Just to specify, I’m on NixOS.

Well I looked at beats over a decade ago and it wasn’t handling extra files that came with albums correctly (pdfs, jpgs etc).
That bug is still present all this time later: https://github.com/beetbox/beets/issues/111
