hey guys,
I was wanting to do something with my music files that is a bit...unusual. I was wondering if there was a way to transfer a large amount of file names to another. Kinda confusing?
All right, say I have 100 audio files (mp3) and I have another 100 audio files (with different audio content). Could I take the file names of the first 100 (in the order that they are shown in the finder menu) and rename the second 100 files with the same names (in that same order).
Weird request I know, but I have audio files with similar content but with different artists. I was gonna copy the names so they have similar names, edit the file names slightly with a renamer, and then edit the id3 tags for the artists so that I can use them on itunes.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, even the name of the process i am describing so I can google it. It will save me months of work.
Thanks.
