How do I copy multiple file names?

CMD: I want to copy the names of all .mp3 files present in a folder along with their audio duration in a text file using Windows Command Prompt. What command should I use to do this?

  • Answer:

    First install this program: http://ibiblio.org/mp3info/ There's a windows version on that page.  Then run this: c:\wherever\you\installed\mp3info -p "%f - %m:%s\n" c:\some\folder\*.mp3 > mp3list.txt That gives you the filenames, plus minutes:seconds, line by line.  Sample output: Awesome Band.mp3 - 3:39 Bad Singer.mp3 - 1:27

The dir command not sure it will show duration but it would look like this:  "dir *.mp3 /S /O:s /w > mymp3s.txt".      start cmd from the directory your mp3s are located.  This command I wrote is telling your computer to list all mp3's in this directory and all subdirectories sorted by file size in wide format and output the results of the command to a text file named mymp3s.txt. you can always type      dir /?
