Can anyone reccomend a good freeware MP3 tag editor? My band have created their own album, and on my MP3 player it just shows up as 'Unknown Artist', which is beginning to annoy me! I'd like to be able to put in the artist and the song titles.

thanks.

If you are using Windows, the you can edit the tags in Windows Media Player.

mp3 Tag is excellent. You can do filename -> tag, tag -> filename, bulk find-and-replace for things like underscores and there are a few album/track databases you can search to save on typing.

Oh, and it's free.

I'm using Windows XP and the latest version of Media Player. I can't see where to edit the tags though! Any hints?

Get the tracks showing in the main window, pick a track, right click, Advanced Tag Editor

This puzzled me for a while, but you need to be in the library window to show it! Thanks

I'm using a program called "Tag Scanner".

Can't remember where I got it (download.com I think?) but its bloody good. Can batch rename a whiole albumn in one go, or you can edit track by track (and when you hit save it automatically goes to the next track in the list ready for edit).

highly recommend it.

Winamp has a tag editor built in.
