Required Dependencies

• ffmpeg
• curl (For fetch_album_lyrics.sh)
• jq (For fetch_album_lyrics.sh)

Utilities

tag_music.sh

By setting the variables at the top of the file, you can easily tag all the music tracks in a specified directory.

album_art.sh

Provide the album directory and album art as follows:
./album_art.sh <path-to-album-directory> <path-to-album-art>

It requires the audio files to be in .mp3 format

convert_to_mp3.sh

Provide the track directory and original extension as follows:
./convert_to_mp3.sh <path-to-album-directory> <original-extension>

fetch_album_lyrics.sh

Provide the album directory and original extension as follows:

It uses the Artist and Album directories to infer the correct album and artist for an API call.
