Hi,
I'm running a webradio on our brandnew CentOS 5.1 database server. (The main purpose of this radio is fun, sure, but it's also a bit like a canary in a coalmine...) It's based on Icecast, MPD and NCMPC and works great. I'm configuring the server remotely via SSH, no X.
Is there any commandline utility to edit ID3 tags?
Cheers,
Niki

If you have the rpmforge repository enabled, yum install id3lib. It includes a command-line utility "id3tag" which can do that.

I just checked it out, and it works great for editing single ID3 tag fields. Now one more question: is there any other command line utility to display the whole ID3 tag, e. g. all the fields? Something similar to:
Artist: XTC Album: Nonsuch Song: That Wave Year: 2000 Genre: Pop
... and so on...
This would make the editing much easier. In the current state of things, I have nothing to check it, except I have to open NCMPC and refresh everytime.
Cheers,
Niki

I believe 'id3info' from the same package will do what you want.

There is a graphical tag editor at rpmforge called easytag - it works fairly well, but there are some odd things that happen. E.g., after I've easytag-edited an mp3 file, mplayer no longer shows all the tags. It's probably a configuration nit I haven't picked yet, but overall I really like it. You can edit one to n tags in one to n files simultaneously (like setting the album for all the songs on it, or genre for a whole slew of mp3s, etc.).
YMMV.

Yeah, I know easytag, but I can't use it. It's on a server, with no X installed.
