To save me opening >1200 files one by one, there must be a way to read the meta data and rename the file or as a minimum sort by meta data? A web search has not produced many pearls of wisdom, apart from a program called mp3tag which is unfortunately M$Windows based.<br>
<br>
Any wisdom from the experts on this list at all please?<br>
<br>
Running xubuntu 14.10 on an asus 1225b kernel 3.16.0-28 if that helps. I'm not a total newbie but not a programmer either :)<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

I know some of the other players have the option to have them rename the files automatically from the metadata.<br>
