Windows – ID3 tagging by “/artistname/albumname” directory structure

id3mp3windows

I have a large number of MP3s (> 10000) organized in a directory structure like

/Music/Artistname/Albumname/Trackname.mp3

Many of them are missing the correct ID3 tags for artist and album.

Does anybody know from own experience a tool that can do this automatically? A Windows solution would be preferred but I'd be ready to set up a Linux VM for this if some nifty shell script exists.

MP3tag would do it - using the filename to tag option, and using a partial path.

For example:

e:/music/%artistname%/%albumname%/%trackname% 

It's one of the situations that's in the MP3tag manual.
