Hello,
Is there any way to pull or set Metadata from a command line? Something like attrib, but for metadata and not attributes. I've been looking online for a while and still no luck; any ideas?

An example would be if you wanted to find all files with a certain author or artist, or audio files of 320kbps, or anything else about those files you would be interested in reading (instead of having to have that information in the file name).

Thanks!

The command line is a poor database MANAGER. Some in formation is only EMBEDDED i n the file data and not the files TRIBUTES as seen by the Operating SYSTEM. The OS does not define such data types. The OS has a limited ability to get information about some special files types. And often this is not visible at the command line, but only in Windows Explorer.

Try using the library system of i Tunes or Win amp or even Windows Media Player. Such re media library programs will find the additional data that is not visible to then operating system.

yes you can, through the power of vbscript (or powershell.)
