Hia Peepz,

Could someone help me out in adding the maximum file-length to my string?

This is intended to rename from tag to filename and with mash-ups, collaborations and so on, I often get "maximum file length exceeded".

I know MP3tag can clip the file-name accordingly, but I can't seem to find the string for it.

Little help please? 🙂

```
U:\ReTagged\\%albumartist%\\%format%s\\%year% - %album% $if($geql($len(%albumsub%),1),'['%albumsub%']',%dummy%)\$num(%track%,2) - %title% $if($geql($len(%artistfeat%),1),'[ft. '%artistfeat%']',%dummy%)

```

Thanks 😃 😃
