    Rename audio files from metadata tags.

    How to specify the target directory?

    1. By the default the audio files are moved or renamed to the parent
       working directory.
    2. Use the option ``-t <folder>`` or ``--target <folder>`` to specifiy
       a target directory.
    3. Use the option ``-a`` or ``--source-as-target`` to copy or rename
       your audio files within the source directory.

positional arguments:
  source                A folder containing audio files or a audio file

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -d, --dry-run         Don’t rename or copy the audio files.
  -s FIELD_SKIP, --field-skip FIELD_SKIP
                        Skip renaming if field is empty.
  -v, --version         show program's version number and exit

metadata actions:
  -E, --enrich-metadata
                        Fetch the tag fields “work” and “mb_workid” from
                        Musicbrainz and save this fields into the audio file.
                        The audio file must have the tag field “mb_trackid”.
                        The give audio file is not renamed.
  -r, --remap-classical

rename:
  -p BACKUP_FOLDER, --backup-folder BACKUP_FOLDER
                        Folder to store the backup files in.
  -B, --best-format     Use the best format. This option only takes effect if
                        the target file already exists. `audiorename` now
                        checks the qualtity of the two audio files (source and
                        target). The tool first examines the format. For
                        example a flac file wins over a mp3 file.
                        `audiorename` then checks the bitrate.
  -D, --delete          Delete files.

rename move actions:
  -C, --copy            Copy files instead of rename / move.
  -M, --move            Move / rename a file. This is the default action. The
                        option can be omitted.
  -n, --no-rename       Don’t rename, move, copy dry run. Do nothing.

rename cleanup actions:
  -A, --backup          Backup audio files instead of delete files

filters:
  -F, --album-complete  Rename only complete albums
  -m ALBUM_MIN, --album-min ALBUM_MIN
                        Rename only albums containing at least X files.
  -e EXTENSION, --extension EXTENSION
                        Extensions to rename

formats:
  -k, --classical       Use the default format for classical music. If you use
                        this option, both parameters (--format and
                        --compilation) have no effect. Classical music is
                        sorted by the lastname of the composer.
  -S, --shell-friendly  Rename audio files “shell friendly”, this means
                        without whitespaces, parentheses etc.

format strings:
  -c FORMAT_STRING, --compilation FORMAT_STRING
                        Format string for compilations. Use metadata fields
                        and functions to build the format string.
  -f FORMAT_STRING, --format FORMAT_STRING
                        The default format string for audio files that are not
                        compilations or compilations. Use metadata fields and
                        functions to build the format string.
  --soundtrack FORMAT_STRING
                        Format string for a soundtrack audio file. Use
                        metadata fields and functions to build the format
                        string.

                        informations are printted out before any actions on
