Simple Genre Script

Hi all! Is there a script someone already created to simplify genres? for example my library has Rap, Urban, Hip-Hop, Hip Hop, etc. I would rather just have Hip Hop. Seems to be the same across all genres. I’m a DJ so this would be helpful.

You might want to look at the Genre Mapper plugin to see if that will do what you want.

Thank you. This seems like I would have to write my own scripts if I am correct. I was looking for possibly a pre existing script that has already been posted.

It’s simple enough - install @rdswift’s plug-in (from Picard > Options > Plugins), and then you can do something like:

hip hop=hip-hop
hiphop=hip-hop
rap=hip-hop

Or (this will change any tag that contains “hip”):

*hip*=hip-hop

This code should go in the plugin options (Options > Plugins > Genre Mapper), after installation.
