Modifying Tags and Renaming Audio Files
AVS Audio Converter allows you to add/edit audio tags of the files loaded into the program as well as use the inserted tag information to rename your audio files.
Modifying Tags
Audio tags are built-in text information about audio files such as track name and number, author of the song, its release date etc. It might be useful to fill out the tag fields, because many audio players use tags rather than file names when playing back audio files.
To be able to add/edit the tag information switch to the Name/Tag Editor Tab and press the Tag Info button.
The available tags will be displayed within the Edit Area.
Fill in the tag fields. The table below will help you do this:
