This is a normal post Kermode has always been up his own arse.
Praises the most boring or irritating life-wasting films that he's being paid to sit and watch then shows himself up as a massive hypocrite on anything that's actually popular.

One moment he's saying High School Musical is a good film on its own terms as it sets out to entertain, but then says Transformers relies too much on 'special effects and explosions' - well, not to put too fine a point on it, DUH! Perhaps he'd rather those warring giant robots would be better portrayed by men in rubber suits, perhaps playing chess on a beach in arty black and white.

As for his film review advert where he's the popcorn guy telling the newsreader what to watch, if that was me, I'd punch the cunt and find another cinema.

This is a normal post Transformers was utterly awful
Objectively you can't see where robots begin and end when they fight. The plot and dialogue are like a seven year olds. The camera work is like a porn film (following peoples arses around in crowds, peering down tops etc.) it's bad. High School Musical is cheesy as fuck and aimed at young girls, but it's objectively a lot better than Transformers ....let alone the four sequels.

This is a normal post I'm not sure how one self-identifies as 'normally liking that sort of thing'
When one doesn't like the 'thing' in question.

By what category do you classify a thing you don't like as thing you normally would like?

Personally I think the two films are roughly on a par, with obvious hooks for the target audience (in the case of Transformers, flash, bang, wallop, tits, and High School Musical has shallow social drama, perfect coreography, and unattainable late 20s boyfriends). Their success and sequels are almost perfectly matched. To laud one over the other is simply the bias of inauthentic liberalism.

This is a normal post Nah Kermode is pretty decent at leveling out if a film will be any good or not IMO
All the films he has said go and watch, ive come out with a similar reflection, same too the ones he has said to avoid.

Critics of any industry will always be a bit poncy and up their own arse - they have to be so they claim authority over their decision making. Film 2017 is usually pretty good, but some of their special guests can often go very close to being obnoxious just to get some air time on TV.

No no, just wanna get the damn wavs in the right order, not planning to piss around with flacs.

This is a normal post Well then use filenames like wot we all used to.
If you're too lazy even for that, use a/the Bulk Rename Utility.

FLAC is lossless BTW. Shouldn't be any different to a WAV.

You're a techy musician? Pissing around is what you do.

I understand that flacs are lossless, just like wavs. I get this. I am aware of this concept. However, I need to tag them, this is my question. And yes, pissing around is what I do, but at least half of it is to do with smart-arses, so once you're done lording it, fancy providing me with some sort of coherent answer - related to the queston? Cheeky bugger :P

This is a normal post os will arrange files numerically and then alphabetically usually
rename your wav/flac/mp3/txt/pdf files appropriately.
files are files regardless of content.
let your device deal with them automatically.

Number-prefixing the filenames would just work, why use metadata at all?

This is a normal post despite being slow, clunky and pointless if it works it looks really cool sometimes
for about three seconds of 'oooh!' and hipster woo... when it works, which it mostly doesn't. and even if it does it soon wont after an update. just file name, dude - you know it makes sense.

This is a normal post Providing you don't forget the leading zeros.
Plus, I've had to use media players in the past that completely ignore filenames and folder structures and only use metadata (yes, they were shit).

This is a normal post When you say you need to "tag" them
you seem to be under the assumption that the file system has some embedded tagging system that allows you to add meta data to any file. It doesn't, it's part of the file itself and WAV files have to follow a very specific file format or players wont read them, you can't add tags to them. Some apps might store a separate database that has metadata associated with files, but that's bespoke to the application itself, nothing else can read that data unless they have some open API but there's nothing that I know of that can do what you're after. The best solutions have already been posted, either change the filename, simple but use leading zeros in the track name if you want them in order, 01, 06, 10 etc. Or use FLAC, which have FLAG tags in the file format.

Edit: Personally I'd just encode them as 192kb MP3 and save a fuckton of disk space and fill it with porn instead of WAV files.

This is a normal post I have a 512gb SSD on my laptop,
that's plenty to store all my MP3 files. Why the fuck would I want to store them as WAV files at a ridiculous increase in file size? People can't tell the difference between correctly encoded MP3 and WAV like they make out anyway. They are just audio snobs.

This is a normal post That, or they've got something a bit better than Laptop speakers through an onboard soundchip.
I have, and I can tell the difference between FLAC and 320 VBR MP3. FLAC and vinyl is not so easy, but Vinyl requires Ritual, like getting the good china out for a cup of tea. FLAC is like slapping a bag in a mug and MP3 is like filling it up from a hot tap.

This is a normal post My go-to software for working with audio on Linux or Windows (also available for macOS)
is Audacity. That should allow you to add ID3 metadata to a WAV file.

Whether the software used to play the files handles metadata in WAV files is another matter.

This is a normal post I'm pretty sure that's non standard
I would be really hesitant to do that as you risk fecking all your wav files up. WAV files don't support ID3 tags, it's a feature of the MP3 file format, simple as that.

This is a normal post WAV files use the RIFF container format, which has the facility for adding arbitrary metadata.
It's up to the player whether it supports reading that metadata, and the data is usually put at the end of the file to avoid breaking players (likely old ones) that make incorrect assumptions about the structure of the file.

if it's not implemented in anything, what's the point? Audacity is shite.
