Title: Import custom tags from JRiver Media Center
Post by: Bodtje on June 06, 2021, 09:31:36 AM
Hello everyone,

I recently switched from JRiver Media Center to MusicBee.
In MC I created some custom tags (orchestra, chorus, soloists, etc) for my classical music collection.
I already created my music library in MusicBee.
Is it possible to import these custom tags to MusicBee and how should I proceed?

Thanks in advance,
Bodtje

Welcome to the forum Bodtje.

You can do that by creating custom tags for orchestra, chorus, etc, and make sure they correspond with the tag names as JRiver wrote them.
A forum search should show you how to create custom tags. (best use google for a search)

To check the existing tag values you can use MusicBee's Tag Inspector.
