#### Edit audio file metadata

With Kid3, an audio tag editor, you can edit tags in MP3, Ogg/Vorbis,
DSF, FLAC, Opus, MPC, APE, MP4/AAC, MP2, Speex, TrueAudio, WavPack,
WMA, WAV, AIFF and tracker files.

All frames in the ID3 tags of MP3 files can be edited, and it is
possible to convert between ID3v1.1, ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4. Synchronized
lyrics can be edited, imported and exported to LRC Karaoke files.

The tags of multiple files can be set together. It is possible to
generate tags from file names or the contents of other tag fields and to
generate file names from tags and rename folders from tags. Automatic
case conversion and string replacement help to keep tags consistent.

Album data can be imported from gnudb.org, MusicBrainz,
Discogs, Amazon; automatic batch import is available for multiple
folders. It is also possible to export data and generate play lists.

Kid3 uses the KDE Frameworks. Users of other desktop environments may
prefer Kid3-qt instead, which is without KDE dependencies.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install Kid3

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```
