Mp3tag is a powerful and yet easy-to-use tool to edit metadata (ID3, Vorbis Comments and APE) of common audio formats. It can rename files based on the tag information, replace characters or words from tags and filenames, import/export tag information, create playlists and more.

What's New

I've just released Mp3tag v3.30 and wanted to outline some of the new features and changes:

Improvements for Multiple Files with Varying Covers

So far, adding a cover to multiple files with varying covers was only possible via a dedicated action and not directly via drag and drop or the right-click context menu on the Tag Panel. This release adds support for adding covers to files with varying covers (also via drag and drop if the Ctrl key is pressed) at Tag Panel and Extended Tags. It also improves the cover menu labels to indicate which functions are applied to all covers if multiple files with varying covers are selected.

Field mapping for Matroska MKV video files

The previous version introduced improved internal field mappings for MKV video files, which were not compatible with every app. This release adds an option to disable video-specific mappings for Matroska video to increase compatibility with apps that only read TITLE with target type T=30 (see Options → Tags → Advanced).

ARM64 Explorer Context-Menu Extension

Explorer context-menu extensions have the requirement to be made available in the architecture of the host system, i.e., 32-bit, 64-bit, or ARM64 for ARM-based systems. This version adds an ARM64 context-menu extension which shows the Mp3tag menu item on ARM-based Windows installations.

As usual, this new version also includes bug fixes and other improvements, including a fix for a MusicBrainz track number issue. If you're curious, the changelog has the complete list.
