This new -tagging concept is album oriented, as opposed to track/file oriented like -the ClassicTagger was. Picard is written in Python, which is a cross-platform -language, and makes use of cross-platform libraries - this allows the same -code to run both on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. +MusicBrainz Picard is a cross-platform (Linux/Mac OS X/Windows) +application written in Python. It supports the majority of audio +file formats, uses PUID audio fingerprints, performs CD lookups +and disc ID submissions, and it has excellent Unicode support. +This application is the official MusicBrainz tagging application. + +Note: You need to compile and install `chromaprint' with `ffmpeg' +installed for getting the `fpcalc' utility to lookup the music +files against `AcoustID' and `MusicBrainz'. |
