MusicBrainz Picard – Best free mp3 tagging software

February 3rd, 2010 No comments

www.musicbrainz.org

MusicBrainz Picard is a cross-platform (Linux/Mac OS X/Windows) application written in Python and is the official MusicBrainz tagger.

Picard supports the majority of audio file formats, is capable of using audio fingerprints (PUIDs), performing CD lookups and disc ID submissions, and it has excellent Unicode support. Additionally, there are several plugins available that extend Picard’s features.

Go to http://musicbrainz.org/doc/MusicBrainz_Picard to download for free.

The two plugins i found most useful were
Last.fm Tags –
Use Last.fm tags as “genre” (This may slow down auto tagging significantly but does a good job)
Cover Art Downloader – Downloads cover art for optional tag embedding and/or saving as a separate image file (works fast and seamlessly)
you can download these plugins plus much more here .

Testing Out Windows Live Writer

October 28th, 2009 No comments

 

OfrlyFirst impressions.

The interface is really nice and intuitive
It connected to my word press blog easily
adding a photo from your pc is a snap.You can even add effects and resize the photo easily. Text editing is nice it has inline spell checking and its really easy to format.

 

Insert maps, links, videos(from YouTube and windows live accounts and any embed video code easily as well as videos from your pc) and has option for additional plug-ins for a ton of different things.

Map picture

 

 

 

 

 

 
It also has an option to preview your post your working on right on your website.

Only problem I see is that it doesn’t integrate the option to insert photos or other media that’s already on my word press.

Google<–But you can drag and drop photos from your web browser into Live Writer but you cannot ad effects to them.

It also lets you edit older posts that were made without live writer.

I think I will be using this program instead of logging into the dashboard for word press on my website. I’ll update this post after I use it for a week or two.

Get Windows Live Writer Here
http://windowslivewriter.spaces.live.com/

Here are some decent how to videos for Windows Live Writer
http://www.youtube.com/user/WindowsLiveWriter

All in all I give this an over all  ★★★★☆ (4 out of 5
