Is it possible to save the metadata to a file?

[smholt]

Hi all
I wonder if it is possible to save the metadata to a file (txt,csv or xml) when ripping a cd.
I know it is possible to copy the Track Names to the clipboard, but I need a file with all metadata, filename, etc., as compete as possible, with a line for each track, containing all metadata on each line.
I have not found any options to do that in version 12.

You can dump the ID tags and audio data with the scriptable COM object:

I found that solution also, but I wonder if there are any readymade routines available.

The request should be entered in the wishlist, I guess. :p

Well, it's a 3rd party program, but MP3tag will do what you want using the "export" function:
