When you are happy with the selection and that the tags are correct, click the ‘Apply Changes’ button to save the info and tags into the tracks and return to Winamp

Open Winamp and in the Media Library Manager, select all the files you wish to tag (best not to choose more than about 15 in one go). If you have a lot of tracks to tag you can save time and tag multiple music files at once: Click OK to save the info and tags into the track – note that the Playlist Editor and Library now show the correct artist name, album/track title with the correct tags. Click the Auto-Tag button to scan the file – if a match is found, the Basic Info is populated and the ID3 tags are filled in (you can check by looking under the ID3 tabs). The File Info window shows Basic Info and additional tabs for Artwork and ID3 tags – in my example there are no tags at all and the only thing known about the track is the file name – unknown.mp3 Select ‘View file info’ to open the File Info window shown below:. Open Winamp and select (click on) the track you want to download tags for then right click on it –. Note: You must have Winamp Standard (free) or Winamp Pro (paid) for this – Winamp Lite does not include the feature. Winamp does have access to Gracenote and can even tag unknown music files – below is a simple guide to how to use it. What MP3tag lacks is access to the Gracenote database (formerly CDDB – Compact Disc Data Base) – this can identify digital files like MP3s from the track itself – without needing to know the track name, or the artist/album. This is because MP3tag downloads possible tags from the internet using sources that require the album name (e.g. I have used MP3tag ever since but it can’t always download tags from the internet – especially if you don’t know the album name or even who the artist is. 
Last year I reviewed MP3tag – a brilliant universal tag editor that lets you edit the tags of music files together with their filenames, select and edit multiple songs, download song info and add cover art.
