As I spend time editing these aberrations one by one in VLC, (because I must), I can’t help but wonder if this time-consuming tag editing effort will have been time wasted – once my HD migrates back over to the Linux machine. Is there some embedded information in some of these files that VLC is somehow accessing? Seems unlikely since I compressed the MP3s from tracks that I ripped and tagged myself with consistently applied (OCD inspired) uniformity. Most of the tracks were displaying Artist-Track-Title.Filetype lumped together in the Title field and differed from the editable values in file explorer’s music folder view, and a random few tracks were instead displaying metadata values individually which was my preference. The mp3 files were displaying Title, Track#, Artist, etc uniformly when I viewed the HD in Windows’ File Explorer – but strangely enough this wasn’t the case in VLC’s “View Playlist” mode.

Similar issue to what Jim has noticed: I created the metadata tags for some albums I have located on an external HD that is usually attached to my Linux system, and was later glad to see the tags survive a journey to my Windows PC (the former has more RAM and the latter which is my movie server/streamer has a better sound quality).

Note: To edit album art, right click on the picture or VLC icon in the bottom-right corner of the Media Information screen. Close the window and what you entered will be saved automatically. The steps to access and edit ID3 audio tags are quite simple, but here are the steps with screenshots: One quick perk of this information within VLC playlists is that it allows you to sort your MP3 files according to the ID3 tags helping you play the songs that you want in a certain order. The same feature can be seen in Windows Explorer as well. If you navigate to your playlist and view it as a detailed list, then all the metadata information is visible. For example: In VLC, you can see the “Artist – Song Title” data used in the title bar of the Player. It is used by different players in different ways. ID3 tags allow you to view different information about a song and it is primarily used by MP3 files exclusively.
You can simply view or input your own values in the text fields of these corresponding metadata information.

It brings up a simple pop up where you can view all the information like MP3 song title, artist, album, date, genre, track number, now playing, publisher, copyright, encoded by, comments and album art. The quickest way to view/edit it is by using the CTRL + I shortcut key on your PC or by navigating to Tools > Media Information. If you want to view and edit ID3 audio or MP3 tags in VLC Media Player, then it has been really made simple.
