VITUNES-TAG(1) BSD General Commands Manual VITUNES-TAG(1) NAME vitunes-tag -- set the meta-information tags in media files SYNOPSIS vitunes -e tag [-A album] [-a artist] [-g genre] [-t title] [-T track] [-y year] [-c comment] path [...] DESCRIPTION The tag e-command is provided to add or change the meta-information tags of media files. The meta-information fields that can be set are: artist, album, title, genre, track, year, and comment. For each path specified, the given fields will be set to the provided value. The options are as follows: -A album Sets the album field to the provided string. -a artist Sets the artist field to the provided string. -c comment Sets the comment field to the provided string. -g genre Sets the genre field to the provided string. -T track Sets the track field to the provided number. Note that the number must be between 0 and INT_MAX. -t title Sets the title field to the provided string. -y year Sets the year field to the provided number. Note that the number must be between 0 and INT_MAX. NOTES This e-command only changes the meta-information in the raw files them- selves and not the values in the vitunes(1) database. To update the vitunes database after tagging, use the add or update e-commands. EXAMPLES CD rippers frequently pull information from CDDB (or other databases) where, for example, a "The" is missing from an artist/album name when it is, in fact, appropriate. Below is an example of correcting this and then updating the vitunes(1) database: $ vitunes -e tag -a "The White Stripes" /path/to/De_Stijl/* $ vitunes -e update SEE ALSO vitunes(1), vitunes-add(1), vitunes-update(1) AUTHORS Ryan Flannery <ryan.flannery@gmail.com>.
