Guest kopf Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 We all know 78records, where some fella has devoted his time to recording thousands and thousands of ancient records and providing them online as MP3s. The only problem is that they're not tagged. I've written a small python script to tag them up - you can get it here. hope this is useful!

chaosmachine Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 A for effort. I downloaded the whole site via wget one day. So many repeats. I guess that was the thing back then, record the same song six times.

You need to have both a local copy of the html webpage and the music. So, if you downloaded the torrent, then it'll be something like this: tagger E:\78records-siterip-20080816\cdbpdx.com\78records\index.html E:\78records-siterip-20080816\cdbpdx.com\78records\list There's spaces displaying above between "\" and "index.html" and "list", but they shouldn't be there.

As long as you point it to the correct html file (from which they're linked), it should be ok. It'll spew out a load of error messages for all of the files it didn't find, but the files it does find it should tag properly. Let me know how you get on.

Guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 (edited) hmmm the checker is adding "/filename" to the directory as opposed to "\filename" which doesn't seem to work in CMD so it's not resulting in any finds. so i enter "tagger C:/tagger.html C:/desi" which is where the files are. and a bunch of errors come up with the display message like C:\desi/zing-a-zing-a-boom.... etc etc it inverts the slash.

That's fine. Python will find a filepath such as "C:/Windows/system32". However, as I said, it'll spew out thousands of error messages for the mp3s it doesn't find. Also, if you changed the filenames of the files you did download, then it won't find them.
