Ability to tag files (XMP or ID3 support) #43

Open AObuchow opened 4 years ago

AObuchow commented 4 years ago

It'd be nice to be able to give arbitrary tags to files. I'm not exactly sure yet how the tags would be preserved, maybe some metadata should be written to a file?

This feature would allow the user to filter through their audio files based on tags they've defined (or could be auto assigned based on filename patterns).

I think XMP would provide the best way to embed the metadata.

There’s a Java API and it’s OSS from what it seems, could be promising.

I think this might already be possible by using jaudiotagger with ID3 tags, which is already being used as a transitive dependency.
