So how about my opensrc java jaudiotagger lib. Hi Mike, since you know C++ I guess you probably know Java as well. This is a last resort, which I'd like to avoid If I do this, I would be able to abandon m4a files and transcode everything to flac and then retag everything with a suitable script to drive a flac tagging program. The lack of agreement about the (finer) points of the standard confirms me in the view that I should prepare the tagging information in a simple text file and script the application to the m4a files.

All the tagging programs that I've seen have (Lyrics) as the only standard tag which can contain a significant amount of text. I set minimserver to use that as the comment tag, and BubbleUpnp will happily show that on my ageing tablet as part of the metadata. The only odd thing about the tagging I do, is that I use the unsynced lyrics tag to provide extra textual information. I could use that to investigate the python mutagen library, before trying to figure out the best way of using this on windows if that's the only feasible route.įor clarity, I'm not using the AtomicParsley from the old soureceforge site, but the fork from, for which the windows builds come from: I has a minimal lxde and X2Go, so I can run interactive sessions on it. I don't anticipate moving to GNU/linux for interactive computing, although I do have an old HP microserver that essentially acts as a NAS, and is running Ubuntu 16.04. I would probably use mp3tag for those times when a GUI is convenient. I'd expect to use powershell for scripting.

I know that my negligible C++ programming skills mean that I won't be fixing AtomicParsley, so I need another tool. Confusingly mp3tag reads through to the last one whereas MinimServer only reads the first one. So each sees only one of the separate performer tags. mp3tag creates a complete atom path hierarchy for each value, which seems to be what MinimServer expects. This leaves AtomicParsley clear that I've created multiple tags, but it does this by putting the different data atoms under the same atom path. I did try hacking the AtomicParsley executable so that the exclusion didn't occur. It's clear that there's little agreement about m4a tagging, so I shouldn't be surprised. In the past, I've used AtomicParsley as a command line tagger, but its developers take the view that multiple tags are disallowed except in the "reverse DNS" format, and even then the "domain" (which is where custom tags are created by mp3tag) is specifically excluded from multiple values. As far as I can tell these are expected to be in the format that mp3tag chooses. Some of the very useful facilities that MinimServer offers depend on multiple tags, e.g. I'm trying to devise a suitable scheme for tagging m4a files.
