PyTunesFixer

This is one of my oldest programming projects. Its a Windows-only utility that edits the metadata of songs straight out of iTunes, grabbing information from Discogs. Format of the metadata is highly opinionated, hardcoded, and is defined by the constraints of iTunes' metadata capabilities.

Just some of the hardcoded metadata requirements

  • Composers' names are included by digging into the Written By credits on the release in question. If none exist, the release artist's name is used as a composer.
  • Groups (bands) are decomposed into the individual members.
  • Attempts to find an artist's real name (rather than an alias/stage name) are made.
  • Lists of composers are sorted by last name, slash delimited.
  • Featuring credits are denoted with "feat." in the artist field.
