Overview

albums works with media files and tags, but primarily acts on "albums" rather than individual files.

It scans the media library and creates a database. It supports adding albums to "collections," for example to make a list of albums to sync to a digital audio player. It can also perform the sync. There are automated checks and interactive fixes for metadata related issues sich as track numbering (sequence, totals, disc numbers), album-artist tags, etc.

Supported Media

Most features require each album (soundtrack, mixtape...) to be in a folder.

Any album with recognized media files can be scanned. However, most of the check features require albums to understand the tags. FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, and other files with Vorbis comment metadata using standard names are supported. ID3 is supported but many tags are ignored. Other media files have limited support and checks may be skipped.

System Requirements

Requires Python 3.12+. Developed/tested only on Linux. Probably works on MacOS. Interactive features might not work on Windows.
