Full Version: How Put A Generic "Tag" in AAC File

I think this can be done, and I've played with it a bit but cannot get it working right.

I use Exact Audio Copy to rip my CDs. I have EAC set up to rip the WAV convert it to AAC (using the latest free NERO AAC codec) and it works beautiful

I use the command lines

/c ""C:\path\to\neroaacenc.exe" -q 0.425 -if %s -of %d && "C:\path\to\Neroaactag.exe" %d -meta:artist="%a" -meta:album="%g" -meta:track="%n" -meta:title="%t" -meta:genre="%m" -meta:year="%y""

(I got these arguments from another post in these forums)

What I am looking for is a way to add an argument that would put a tag in the comment line "EAC Secure Rip"

Right now after I am done ripping the CD to m4a I go to Mp3Tag and manually insert the comment. It would be nice to simply have the tag written when I rip the CD.

I hope this makes sense, I am new to ripping CDs

Thanks, this site has great posts and has helped me get set up just by reading other people's issues.

You should be able to add

-meta-user:ripper="EAC Secure Rip" to the end of that and get what you want.

What that does is tell NeroAACTag to create a custom tag field called "ripper" and put "EAC Secure Rip" into it.


EDIT:

Or if you want to put it in the comment field try

-meta:comment="EAC Secure Rip"

The first option is what I was trying to do, but I used the second option 'cause it's actually a better way of doing it and it works great. Thanks for the quick reply. Exactly what I wanted
