A Small Feature Mp3Tag is urgently in need ..

[dbiceberg]

I am a professional media distributor and i use mp3tag which does almost all of my tasks in ease. I used the word ALMOST ALL because Mp3tag lacks one feature. Simple trimmer. To overcome this demerit i am forced to use professional batch filename trimmers ( i use File Renamer Turbo).

  I know trimming feature already exists in Mp3tag, but do u ppl know how complicated its to use :frowning: 

Even Einstein's String Theorem seems easer than that.
Regular Expression,Standard functions, $trim, $RegExp blah blah blah ... these equations made me mad.

Dont underestimate me, i have laready coined questions regarding this 6 times.
/t/10853/1
/t/10767/1
/t/10739/1
Rest 3 are posted in non Mp3tag forums like videohelp, 9down, totalguide .......

Pls pls pls pls pls pls, consider my request to implement this feature. At last its all about a small feature

Advanced thanx. Love u a lot Guys, specially Florian | ViV4 G3RM4NY

PS : i have attached screenshot of the feature Mp3tag lacks ...

So what did you make with the answers to your topics, you didn't even reply.
Don't just ask the same question again in a new thread.

Also try to be as clear as possible with your requests, just "Trim filename" is not enough.
But now you've supplied a screenshot. Looking at it, it seems you want to remove a certain amount of characters from the right side of the filename.

In Mp3tag there are often many ways to solve a problem.

Minna Minni (Instrumental) - We are The 1.mp3
So you want to remove the " - We are The 1" part from it.

Your approach: Remove the last 15 characters.
Solution for Mp3tag:
$left(%_filename%,$sub($len(%_filename%),15))

Maybe looks complicated, but once you have it, all you need to do is change the number to your needs.

Another approach: Just replace " - We are The 1"
Format string:
$replace(%_filename%, - We are The 1, )

Now that's easy.

Even this approach from your old topics works:
/t/10767/1
(it's just a different pattern)
