Re: Question Bout Music Folder Editing

I came across the MP3Tag utility while looking for software do some batch processing on mp3 files.

I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but the "Format tags and filenames" feature might be what you're looking for.

Re: Question Bout Music Folder Editing

I know you are talking about windows here but I ran into the exact same problem under Linux. The problem is not just the capitalizing of the first char of each word it is also the MANY exceptions you will run into with song titles and band names. I ended up writing a perl script to deal with it many years ago and I still use it. I still have to add special cases to it occasionally but here it is:

btw, the ugly kludge where I rename the file to 'x' and then rename it to what I want is a holdover from the days when my mp3 files were stored on a FAT formatted disk and the standard MS filesystem wouldn't allow me to rename a file to the same name but a different case. How stupid is that
