I've put together a little macro in Excel that creates a listing of mp3s under a specified directory (and all subdirectories under it), loads the info into a tab, splits the filename up by directory, and reads the id3v1.1 and 2.3 headers if present and adds that info in as well.
You need to enable macros to get it to work.
What it WON'T do...it won't modify your files. It won't update the ID3 tags. It won't rename your files.
What good is it then? It (fairly) quickly creates a listing of files. You can quickly review your tags to see if you need to update some. You can reformat the results to create a printable listing to keep nearby for reference. You can use it as the starting point for a bulk (or selective) renaming process (you are on your own for that...I don't want to be responsible for trashing your files)
Where is it. I'll try to attach it here (rename txt to zip), but if that fails, a copy of it is
hereIt might have problems with filenames that have a single quote in them...I'm not sure.
If you find it useful, great. If not...remember what you paid for it. I'll listen to suggested improvements and if easy or feasible, I'll attempt them. Enjoy
edited to add...Mods...if this really belongs under software, then move it there, but I figured since it was specifically for MP3s, it could go here. Thanks
