Just use a a tagger. They abound. Try
"Ex Falso" or "puddletag" on Linux. I use both ... Kid3 is good
too, I use that at times. And there are more, just check your
package manager.

The music files are in ~home/Music/Unknown Artist/Unknown
Album/01. Track 1*.mp3
I would like
all of these files renamed to their correct song files, in
their correct album directories. Do you know how to do this?
It appears to be impossible to do this manually.
It is all in a data file under your
home directory if you are using linux. Windows, No Clue.
Should still be in a db.

I imported my music CDs into Banshee. Many of the CDs

Now, I find out that
this work I did failed to update the file names for
all of these songs.
Belatedly, I found the option to update the file names
when you manually
edit the metadata. But, even though I now have
updated my preferences to do
this, it did not update all of the (thousands) of
files that I already
manually edited. It looks like it will now work
properly for any CDs I
import and manually edit in the future. But, this
does not really help with
my current situation.
Is there any way to force Banshee to go back and
change all of the
(thousands of) file names to match the metadata I have
entered?
