Installed Very Slowly,Maybe it's my Evo4G Sprint /PDANet Tether Connection,Have as of yet to determine it's "Keeper Status".Did not associate file with player,maybe my mistake/Well,now,Correction.... it seems to have taken inventory of my files,musical and otherwise,and attempted to catalogue them.....need to assess,will post back if there is a negative connotation....

No need to read the manual or have a diploma in math. It is easy as A…B…C.

I beg to differ their statement.
MP3Tag's way to name a file: %tracknumber%. %artist% - %title%
TagTuner's way of doing it: %6. %1 - %3
Where's their ABC? The variable names don't make sense at all. Remembering all the strange shortcuts is a pain(but I guess they figured that out by theirselves already, since they offer them all as buttons).
No need for math? I'd say you need a good degree in algebra for this one :(

My favorite is the free Tagscan
http://www.xdlab.ru/en/index.htm

I still would like an app that will take a random batch of files and give me some album choices based on file name. Oddly WMP does this best for me, but once it finds the album and populates the tags, I move everything to another folder because WMP never stops tweaking the database... grrr...

Compared to the completely free MP3Tag this is an utter failure. I could go point by point for several paragraphs showing that every single "feature" of this software is done better by MP3Tag.

Not only that, MP3Tag has many features that are lacking in this giveaway. Right off the bat you realize that you're forced to look at a display with all the columns aligned the way the designers want them to be. Say what? Total thumbs down. Get MP3Tag!

@Autor:

I, too, have blanks in the registration code, but in the "About" section, it does say:

This Product is Licensed to
User Name: Giveawayoftheday

Then under that it says "Single User License."

Is that correct? And is it correct that I should STILL not see a key in the registration key tab?

Thanks
RuthMarie

i love to have such a program, it is unique in its class , thank you

I was able to easily download and install TagTuner and didn't even have to bother with registration as it automatically registers it to "GiveAwayoftheDay." About the simplest installation I've seen here.

Two days ago I spent about four hours using iTunes to update the meta information for about 100 songs in its database. Silly me, I just assumed that by doing that it was updating the information in the files on my computer where they'd been taken from a multitude of directories. It neither updated the meta information on my iPhone, nor on my computer but rather only in its propitiatory database. I could have sure used TagTuner then.

I poked around a bit and did a few sample updates and TagTuner is awesome! I don't expect it to be a player, but for updating the meta-tags it does exactly what I need. I'll be overwriting all the ones I'd already done with the info from my iTunes database, but using this to update the rest of my collection of music and audio books.

A huge "thanks" to GOTD and TagTuner.com!

This is a very low function tagger as you MUST sort all the tracks into the correct sequence as the original CD before it will do a lookup, Even when the track numbers are clearly listed, you must sort them yourself - why can't this be done internally???

Granted it would be difficult if the values weren't present but when they are - why am I forced to do it?

Thumbs down and uninstall just for that simple fail.

Another negative is that you MUST have all tracks to identify the CD as the lookup without gives NO results on 10 different tracks all by different artistes.

TagTuner is a well designed and useful program. Until now I've been using dBpoweramp and various freeware media players to manage my audio file tags. Judged purely as a tag editor, TagTuner has a better user interface than any of them - it's a keeper for sure. Also, TagTuner has the cleanest and quickest GOTD installation procedure that I've ever seen. Thank you very much to TagTuner for this nicely planned giveaway.

Having said that, I really think that $30 is excessive for a tag editor, no matter how well designed it may be, and that bundling the functionality with a media player isn't a strong incentive to buy when there are so many first rate freeware media players available. I wish you guys every success, but I think you're being a bit too optimistic.

This goes beyond Mp3tag and others via the provision of macros/templates which can offer a really powerful way of re-tagging/renaming 1000s of files.

The Undo feature is nice (if not unique) but doesn't work with the mass-tagging which helps TuneTagger stand out from the rest of the crowd.

As it stands it's an effective way of handling tags - and it seems to have a lot of potential for future development without sacrificing the effective, uncluttered interface.

Norton's flagged it as a virus and delete it. Zemana Antilogger also flagged it as trying to capture my clipboard???

2 diiferentt programs flagged it.... any ideas or advice? I am not going to override the 2 warnings.

Not a bad little piece of software.

The one problem I have with it so far is that my mouse scroll wheel works opposite to its "normal" orientation in Explorer and the vast majority of other programs.

I also have this issue with Acronis programs. It seems to have something to do with European and Russian coders...

Not as smooth as MP3tag, and you can't seem to drag and drop as you can with MP3tag (something I believe is essential personally)

jens,

This is a full version.

“Giveawayoftheday.rtf” contains a warning message to show you before download and install any future upgrades. To be correct with you, because the future updates are not free by the rules. It also will offer a coupon code listed at the page top.

To All:

Please feel free to suggest the features. I'll put them into my list when the day is over, then sort them. Then release the next version.

I'll have a go, although the free (German, but in English) MP3tag does everything and well - for free remember.

W7 x64
TagTuner v2.0

install looks clean. 5.5 MB & a dozen or so files.

uses the bass library. the versions used are old.
would think you could update to most current though?

includes CHM help file.

thinking that this program is a bit dated?
perhaps not updated since 2009 or so?
& only changed now in order to be used for GAOTD?

license is provided automatically on installation.

startup time is relatively lengthy. not a big deal, but only noting it cause it is.

says it supports MP3 OGG Flac M4* MP4 WMA WMV ASF & CDA.

"playing" a song is a bit odd. simply clicking on a song, then hitting the Play button is not sufficient. you need to either double-click the song, or use the context-menu Play. not a detriment to the program, because IMO it is a tagger & not a "player". just an oddity.

editor listings are fully sortable, columns can be listed or not.
editor listing columns can be rearranged by drag & drop & persist after restart.

external player is set to WMP. not sure offhand how to set it to or add a different player?
(i abhor WMP due to its tendency to modify tags, disregarding your settings telling it not to do so.)

switching player to compact mode, then back out looses directory focus.

has an undo. perhaps for all actions, not sure? & at least some undo can be multi-level undos.

program looks to be full featured.

some terminology is not entirely clear.

don't seem to have a way to retain a files date/time.
that would be a feature i would like. to modify a tag, but to have the file date/time remain unchanged.

looks to be a lot of nuances to the program & coming to understand them will take some study & that time is more time then i have ATM. IOW it will take time to become proficient with this program.

probably not bad. & i only say it that way because it is likely equal to its peers, but you would have to study them too & learn their nuances to really say.

Will this handle re-tagging and renaming MP3+G karaoke files (consisting of the MP3 and CDG file pair).
I know the program called "Tag and Remame" will do this but it is not free.
If it will do MP3+G files will it do Zipped MP3+G files?

Thanks

does this program search your hard-drive for all your songs ?

installed fine on xp

seams more like a player where you have edit possibilities

if you allready have mp3TAG installed and you do not need the player then stick to mp3TAG which is incredible good for one or several mp3 files.

but one strange thing : when it install it also saves a file called : "Giveawayoftheday.rtf"
the content of the file is :
"Note: You have a fully functional version build for XXX.
The downloaded version will be 30 day evaluation version. You can try it free of charge for 30 days and use the following coupon code to get 30% discount:
YYY"
is it really just an evaluation version ??

Software doesn't describe source for fetching tag information from internet - is this freedb, gracenote.....?

Doesn't seem to do any more than mp3tag and foobar2000.

Ok, I've never used an MP3 tagger before, so I decided to give this one a try. I cant' say it's the best, but my God, it's great. I've been looking for a good program to retag, rename my mixed up, badly coordinated MP3 collection for years. This program did in a few minutes, what would have taken me hours to do by hand, and that's just the renaming of files (I have thousands). Big thumbs up!

My only issue is that sometimes changes you make using context menu options don't seem to be saved (like changing templates for file renaming).

Installed and registered easily on my Win 7 64 bit system it plays well and seems to correctly identify what is being played.
This is a nice little piece of software thank you GOTD and TagTuner.

I have not checked this out completely, but I did go through the options. This is no ordinary tag editor. It has lots of features that you don't find in other tag editors. Whether you use all the features or not is upto you, but it does offer many options. The interface is neat and gives you total control on tag editing. It also has a nice player integrated.

Hello guys!

We were performing some technical works and it seems that a small part of your comments has been lost.

Sorry for this and for any inconvenience it might cause.

Have a nice day,
GOTD project team

Very Nice !! Thanks GOTD and author. I am not into collecting music, etc., like my son, but this program very easily (and intuitively) does a great organizing job for me...

Thanks Autor. It does show.

LVtz,

You have a chance to try it yourself

Some of the unique features are listed above. They all are products of users requests and most of them were implemented in a really short time.

I used mp3tag - did someone compate TagTuner & mp3tag (their tagging features)?

Anthony,

It must not show any registration numbers at all. If you want to be sure that it is a fully registered copy take a look at the main window title, then into the About dialog.

"Giveawayoftheday" should be a in the user name field and no "unregistered" label next to application name in the title.

I put the proper registration key and made it absolutely transparent to the GOTD users.

Nice little AIO (all in one) package. It handles correcting Tags much easier and better than any other package I have worked with. This one is a keeper. Thanks TagTuner and GAOTD!!

p.s #1 this is not a non playing database altering piece of software, it does have a player
screenshot of main UI http://my.jetscreenshot.com/3161/20111125-uvii-263kb

Pro's when compared to Mediamonkey (anybody else thinks they should have kept the V3 UI instead of their new "slick" V4 look?)or WMP is clearly the ability for easy batch tagging, tagging from file, haven't checked out the lyrics option yet so don't know if it embeds them yet but it looks like it does that too (and minilyrics always is a bit of f'ed up in Mediamonkey)
If you still have to tag your collection this is clearly the piece of software you want above your standard media player

I don't know if it activated since the registration and key is still showing up as blank. Normally the GOTD registration inputs the name and key automatically.

Some integrated music playing software packages have inbuilt systems to check tags, alter tags, look up tags online, check online databases and consistently place the music you have into a the order you seek. I can see that when you have a badly designed piece of software to play music in (I am thinking of My old but serviceable E10 iRiver mp3 player - the music player that came with is dire) then having improvements to tag and update music files are important. But how does this do things that Media Monkey or Windows Media Player cant - where is the point of difference? From the screen captures I cant see why I would want to move to a non-music playing database alteration system for my music files.

Thanks for the offer, but I cant see the benefits in trying it ... unfortunately
