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.
I have not tagged music files in a very long time but last I did it was with easytag.
I like https://flathub.org/apps/org.nickvision.tagger
Very simple to use app

I wonder if Jellyfin can find metadata like it does with movies. Perhaps via a plugin?. Apart from that, all functionality (e.g. streaming) works with music just like it does with videos and that’s great!
