Re: [Banshee-List] Editing MP3 Tag's

[IBBoard <ibboard gmail com>]

I think it makes sense either way - Banshee's "you have to select 
multiple to edit multiple" means that you're not confused by filtering 
etc and you make it explicit, plus it makes the "sync all values" easier 
to work with, but the other way does mean that you don't have to think 
what you start editing on before you edit.

As for replicating to all tracks, there is also a "Sync All" button at 
the bottom of the Track Editor dialog, which will sync all of the values 
with the "sync" button next to them (the icon that looks like two sheets 
of paper). That will duplicate the following to all selected tracks: 
artist, album, genre, disk and year for normal albums, or compilation 
artist, album, genre, disk and year for tracks on a compilation where 
the "Compilation Album Artist" option has been ticked.

Also, note that "Properties" is different to "Track information". The 
former is about the file on disk (file path, modified dates, codecs, 
etc) where as the latter is about the tags within the song (album, 
artist, year, etc)
