Re: WMV Tags



There is a vbs script at my web site. Just drag and drop any folder on it
and all
id information for its files will be placed in a tab delimited file. Just
open it in any
spread*** and sort and format. Edit the script (right click and select
edit) to change the path to the
output file (it will create it) before using it.

This will create the database. Maybe you can reverse the script to update
tags.
