Songs Tag Editor

Depends on

Tags Supported

• Title

• Musicbrainz Ids (Recording, Release, Release Group and Artist)

Current Implementation

• Browse through multiple matches returned from acoustid query operation
• Able to edit tags manually
• Tag Fields can be filled with current suggestion using 'Use Suggestion' button
• Submit will update the tags with whatever was there in entry fields

Current Limitations (May 2020)

• Too many suggestions sometimes. We need a way to filter and sort the results.
