NAME

       mp3tag - view and manipulate ID3v1 tags.

SYNOPSIS

       mp3tag [ -s song ] [ -a artist ] [ -l album ] [ -y year ] [ -e comment ] [ -k track ] [ -g genre ] [ -r ] file [ file ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page briefly documents the mp3tag command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the orig-
       inal program does not have one.

       mp3tag is a program that allows you to both view and manipulate ID3v1 metadata tags. Running the command with just a filename will  display
       the file's current tag. Setting some options will cause the tag to be updated and displayed.

OPTIONS

       -a artist
	      Set the artist name to artist. Strings over thirty characters are truncated.

       -e comment
	      Set the comment to comment. Strings over thirty characters are truncated.

       -g genre
	      Set  the	genre to genre. This is a single integer with a value of 0 to 254 corresponding to the appropriate Winamp compatible genre
	      (use '-g list' to list all supported genres).

       -k track
	      Set the track number to track. This is a single integer with a value of 0 to 255. Specifying this field truncates the comment  field
	      to twenty-eight characters, as per the ID3v1.1 standard.

       -l album
	      Set the album name to album. Strings over thirty characters are truncated.

       -r     Merge new tag with any preexisting tag in the file.

       -s song
	      Set the song name to song. Strings over thirty characters are truncated.

       -y year
	      Set the year to year. Strings over four characters are truncated.

EXAMPLES

       Display foo.mp3's current ID3v1 info:

	      mp3tag foo.mp3

       Set foo.mp3's artist to 'Bar', and album to 'Baz':

	      mp3tag -a Bar -l Baz foo.mp3

       Set foo.mp3's year to 2001, merging it with any tag already present:

	      mp3tag -y 2001 -r foo.mp3
