As a consequence the steps you need to take to get the data loaded may vary. If you followed along you will have a CSV file that contains the export of your music collection delimited by semicolons. Wait for a while and then click No to not display the export file. Then, return to Mp3tag, select your export configuration, set up the export file name and click OK. $loop(%_filename_ext%)%title% %artist% %album% %track% %year% %_length_seconds% %_file_size% %_file_mod_date% %_folderpath% %_filename_ext% %albumartist% %discnumber% %genre% %composer% %bpm% %_codec% %_bitrate% $filename(csv,utf-16)Title Artist Album Track Year Length Size Last Modified Path Filename AlbumArtist DiscNumber Genre Composer BPM Codec Bitrate
#Mp3tag cannot open file for writing code#
Notepad will open and allow you to edit the export configuration.Īt this point you can copy and paste the code below into Notepad and hit save. Now, hit the first button on the right (the little page with a star to create a new export configuration and give it a name (I named mine “My CSV Export”) and click OK. Once Mp3tag has listed all your files (might take a while if you have a large collection), select all files (Edit àSelect all files or CTRL+A) and then choose File à Export (CTRL+E). To create the export with Mp3tag, open the program and navigate to where you music is stored (my collection sits on \192.168.1.9\Music, which is a folder on my server). If you use another tool (not Mp3tag) or already have an export file you would like to use skip to the next step. If you want to follow along in my step-by-step scenario I suggest installing Mp3tag.Īgain, please note that you do not have to follow these steps exactly. Of course you can use any other tool that has an export function, as long as you end up with something like a CSV. Keep reading if you want to know how and maybe rip mine. I created my own export file and I suggest you do too. It also comes with an export function to CSV, although it does not export enough to my taste.

I particularly like Mp3tag ( ) which is free and is extensible. A lot of tools exist that enable you to work with these tags and fix them. If you are like me you have a digital music collection all nice and tidy complete with ID3 tags. Now, with Power BI being just around the corner I started thinking about taking on this old habit again. It all started back in the days of Pivot Viewer (At some point I was even part of a lustrous duo called ‘the Pivot Brothers’).
Using Power BI to visualize your music collection ĭisclaimer: this post was written before I learned that pie charts are bad.Īs some of you might recall, I have been talking about visualizing digital music collections using Microsoft tools.
