Heya,
Anyway, i googled and found some easy linux command to find all mp3 files and convert them to ID3v2

Out of curiosity, what command is that?

It uses a simple program called ‘id3v2’.
Since im using Debian, all I had to do was ‘apt-get install id3v2’ and run the command:

find -name *.[Mm][Pp]3 -exec id3v2 -C '{}' ;

This command recursively converts all id3v1 tags to id3v2.
Worked like a charm for me. 🙂
