TagSplice

Simple script to split ARTIST and DISPLAYARTIST tag for your music.

Why bother?

'Cause it looks nicer, DUH~! would you prefer Artist A; Artist B; Artist C or Artist A & Artist B feat. Artist C (Artist A//Artist B//ArtistC) ?

If you are the kind of person that prefers this and not quite satisfied with something like Picard or Mp3tag editor, then this might be for you.

Features

• Auto-extracts relevent tags and splice them.
• If the track title includes feat. / ft. embed into tags (entirely optionall)
• Intuitive and easy to use Qt GUI available (if not present, tk fallback available)
• Allows users to add custome overrides so you can have the notation you prefer.

Usage

Requires Python 3.10+ and Mutagen. The GUI also requires PySide6 and tkinterdnd2.

python run.py cli view path\to\file.flac (or entire directory)
python run.py cli fix --apply path\to\folder

run.py creates .venv and installs dependencies on first use. The CLI previews changes by default. Use --apply to write them. Use --extract-feat-from-title to enable optional title-credit extraction.

GUI

Requires PySide6 (fallback uses tk if Qt is not available)

python run.py gui to run GUI. Qt should be auto-installed.

Overrides

Utilize overrides.json to use your preferred notation especially in DISPLAYARTIST field. Schema: "original_notation": "preferred_notation"

{
  "artist a": "Artist A",
  "Band B": "band B",
  "chorus C": "CHORUS c"
}
