You will need to have 2 programs installed on your machine, PERL and ENCSpot. If you have a PERL compiler, you can compile the script into an executable.
Open ENCSpot and browse to the MP3 folder of interest or you can right-click on the folder in Windows Explorer and select ENCSpot.
Now click on FILE -> EXPORT. In the GENERAL category, check name and encoder. Make sure that no other check marks are checked. Ensure that RECURSIVE SCAN is checked (if desired). Now click on the GO button.
When the scan is complete, the report automatically opens in your default web browser. You will save this page as an html file (FILE -> SAVE AS...). I would save this file into the same directory as the script.
Using the bat file, drag and drop the report onto the batch file. This batch file will run the script for you vice having to open a command window and type out the command. (You will need to edit the second line of the batch file to point to the correct location of the script). The script will only take a second to run. It creates a file called "EncSpot Report.txt".
Now open MP3Tag Studio and select 'Tag/Rename from List'. Make sure that 'tag' is selected in the options and the text file is the input list. The field separator is a semicolon (;) and the first field is absolute path. The second field can be whatever you want. I use the 'Encoded by' field. This field is visible in Winamp. Here is the advanced mode format I use...
<Target file AP>;<V2_TENC>
Just to be safe, use preview mode.
And thats all.
If anyone has any suggestions or problems, let me know.
