I've posted this a few places, but I figured posting here wouldn't hurt. The more seeds you plant, the more likely they're to bear fruit n such.
TL;DR - Is there a way to auto-tag an MP3's metadata as soon as it's downloaded?
Long Version:
OK, so it started when I was beginning to get frustrated with the fact that there's virtually no cross-platform support between Windows 10 & Android when it comes to podcasts. I listen to quite a few on my phone, my laptop, & my rig that's connected to my surround sound. It was annoying to sign up for a new podcast on one device, only to realize I had to sign up on all my devices individually. After some digging, I decided to get rid of Grover Podcast from my laptop & PC in favour for gPodder's python tool that automatically downloads the MP3s of the cast, and I'll just play it through a media player.
Cool! Except I'm anal when it comes to media players. I need my metadata tagged efficiently in order to sleep well at night, and almost every podcast I listen to doesn't handle their metadata very well. (shout out to "BBC's The Digital Human" for having the best tags). Most of these were easy to ignore as I didn't plan on having the files on my computer for very long, however, there is one thing that bugs the living hell out of me & that's the ones that have no metadata, especially the genre tag. The genre tag is how I've been able to directly find podcasts as the most common genre in these podcasts is "podcast".
So, what I'm wondering is if there's a program or something in visual studio, python etc where if an MP3 is downloaded to a general folder it will automatically tag the genre as "podcast"?
