Hey all, I just happened upon a trove (~100gb) of MP3s from when I was a sweaty teenager with a DSL line and a 5-disc ripper. Anyone have recommendations on OSS toolsuites to begin indexing/sorting out the files? Everything apparently got flat dumped from a directory structure to a folder. There’s metadata in about 90% of the content - ~10k songs to sort through shouldn’t be too rough with hashing.

I’d be more than willing to seed once everything is in a happy place, there’s probably a few hundred studio cuts of songs that haven’t seen the light of day yet.

My sushi roll experience was going to be iterating the byte-string headers and grabbing out anything of value, so essentially this. My hope was that there was a solution present to reduce the hand-rolling… tbd but it appears that Picard is a viable option based on yours and others commentary/upvotes
