I just purchased an audio download of 36 tracks. No meta data, and my
wife's flip phone needs meta data for sorting and such.
It is one thing to use VLC to fix the meta data on a single mp3 or 2
before transfering to her phone, but 36 is just a road too far.
So is there a decent program with Fedora that will let me easily set the
meta data on these?
thanks

Thanks I will check it out.

I installed it but no command id3tg.
What next?

Are you sure you installed the package? Look for /usr/bin/id3*
rpm -qf /usr/bin/id3tag
id3lib-3.8.3-53.fc37.x86_64
$ ls /usr/bin/id3*
/usr/bin/id3convert /usr/bin/id3cp /usr/bin/id3info /usr/bin/id3tag
/usr/bin/id3v2

When I read this in the list, I see that the problem is a typo in the
response by Frank. In future, you could double check the actual
components of an rpm using
$ rpm -q --filesbypkg id3lib
id3lib /usr/bin/id3convert
id3lib /usr/bin/id3cp
id3lib /usr/bin/id3info

What is the encoding of the tracks? MP3? What meta data is required?

I guess it was a little unclear.
mp3
Artist mimimally and track #. Title is unimportant as it is a storybook
so all the titles are the same, just title followed by track # for
sorting in her player.
I do this sort of thing regularly when it is 2 or 3 tracks with VLC
editing of "Info". But as I said, 36 tracks is a bit much.
And when I have wav files that I convert to mp3, Audacity can kind of do
the meta data, but I end up "touching things up" with VLC.
