MP3 Diags Description

A GUI-based application that allows end-users to identify issues with their MP3 files, fi

What is MP3 Diags and what does it do?
In a few words, MP3 Diags is a GUI-based application that allows end-users to identify issues with their MP3 files, fix some of the issues and make other changes, like adding track information. It also lets you "look inside" an MP3 file.
Unlike some programs that are designed to deal with a single topic (like fixing VBR headers or adding cover art), MP3 Diags is a one stop solution that identifies more than 50 different issues in MP3 files and provides the means to fix many of them (well, not everything is fixable; you can't make a 64kbps file sound like a 256kbps one.)
Some of the more important issues that are found:

* broken tags / headers / audio
* duplicate tags / headers
* incorrect placement of tags / headers (ID3V2, ID3V1, LAME, Xing, ...)
* low quality audio
* missing VBR header
* missing track info / cover art
* broken track info / cover art
* missing normalization data
* character encoding issues (for languages other than English)

Some of the fixes and changes that MP3 Diags can do:

* Adding / fixing track info, including album cover; information can be retrieved from several sources: Internet, clipboard, file name, local files, and (obviously) keyboard
* Correcting files that show incorrect song duration
* Correcting files in which the player cannot seek correctly
* Converting characters for non-English names
* Adding composer name to the artist field, for players that don't handle the composer field
* Renaming files based on their fields
* Changing word case for track info

Advanced features
In the Config - Others tab you can see in the middle of the window a "Misc" group. Inside it there are 2 checkboxes that allow you to add to the main window's toolbar two buttons that are invisible by default: "Debug" and "Sessions".
The "Debug" button opens up a new window where you can export song information to a text file or see trace messages from the last file scan (as long as you didn't close the application, because these are not stored on the disk, and provided that logging is enabled.)

Another option that you can configure here is logging all the changes to a file. The log file is located in the same directory as the ".ini" session file
The "Sessions" button should be more interesting. It allows you to keep several separated sets of folders containing MP3s, each set with its own settings. Everything that you see in the configuration dialog is stored "per session". Once the button is visible, you can click on it to see the "Sessions dialog", where you can add / remove / change sessions. Note that if you spent some time getting the settings right, you may want to use the "Save as ..." button, which will copy your settings to a new session.
