After you’ve installed the application, you can peruse the default settings within the Tools – options menu.之後,您已安裝的應用,您可以細讀默認設置內部的工具-選項菜單。 For now, leave these as they are.現在,離開這些,因為他們。 What you’ll want to do is use the directory navigation to open a music directory that you want to work on.什麼您想要做的就是使用目錄導航打開音樂目錄您想要的工作。
The application will open all nested subdirectories, so if for instance all your music is in a directory labeled ‘iTunes’ you can just open that directory.該應用程序將打開所有嵌套子目錄,因此,如果舉例來說,您所有的音樂是在一個目錄標示'的iTunes '你可以只需打開該目錄中。 Warning – if you do this it is going to take mp3tag a while to scan all the files and metadata.警告-如果你這樣做是要採取m p3tag,而掃描所有的文件和元數據。 So you may want to navigate down to the artist or album.因此您可能會想要瀏覽到藝術家或唱片。 In the example I will use, I navigate down to thealbum that I want to fill in data for:在示例中,我會使用,我瀏覽下來,以thealbum我想,以填補在數據為:
Mp3tag gives me a window showing all tracks within the selected directory. mp3tag給我一個窗口,顯示所有軌道內選定的目錄中。
I select all my album tracks.我選擇我所有的專輯軌道。 You can use the normal Windows key combinations to select subsets.您可以使用正常的Windows鍵的組合來選擇子。 The window is divided into two panels.窗口分為兩個小組。 In the right-panel, you see the existing metadata.在右邊的面板,您會看到現有的元數據。 You can see that my metadata is incomplete for Genre.您可以看到我的元數據是不完整的為體裁。 Four tracks have a null value and two have ‘Pop’.四路軌有一個空值和兩個'流行' 。 I want to change all to Disco.我想改變一切,以迪斯科。
The left-panel can be thought of as the ‘control’ panel – it shows the values that you want to update into the tags for selected files.左面板可以被看作是'控制'小組-它表明的價值觀,你要更新到標籤為選定的文件。 You can see in the example that mp3tag understands that for the selected tracks the metadata for the Album, Year, and Artist are consistent.你可以看到,在舉例說, mp3tag了解到,為選定的跟踪中繼專輯,年份,和藝術家都是一致的。 It defaults the control panel to keep the existing values.它默認控制面板,以保持現有的價值觀。 The literal <keep> is used whenever multiple values currently exist in the selected fileset.字面<keep>是用來每當多個值目前存在的在選定的檔案。 Otheroptions are to type in a single new literal value to replace all the existing values for the tag, or use the <blank> literal to remove the metadata. otheroptions是類型在一個單一的新字面價值,以取代現行的所有值為標記,或使用<空白>的字面刪除元數據。
