In addition to the other columns, it would be useful to have a column with the file size of the file
Something like
| %_file_size% | File size in human readable format |
|---|---|
| %_file_size_bytes% | File size in bytes |
| %_file_size_kb% | File size in kilobytes |
| %_file_size_mb% | File size in megabytes |

You know, I must be getting old - I had added some custom/additional columns a long time ago, but I've been so happy with MP3Tag, I haven't felt the need to tweak it for a long time
Thanks for the reminder
Edit:
I'd like to format it to return 1,234.5 MB, but
$fmtnum($num(%_file_size_mb%,1)) MB
drops the .5 part and only displays 1,234 MB
Is there a format that I can use?
simply use %_file_size%, no special formatting.
I'm not sure if there is a formula for MB as you wish.
I have created all 8 possible variants without and with $fmtnum and can't find your 1,234.5 format.
(My windows system is using an apostrophe as thousands separator, not a comma).
From the help:
$fmtNum(x) formats number x with separator for thousands according to current locale settings.
Using very big numbers, $fmtnum seems to "shorten" the values: Please check the line with 11.82GB (shown as 11) and 26.54MB (shown as 26). I can't say why the column with MB doesn't use a thousands separator at all and why the formatted MB doesn't show the numbers after the decimal separator.
I went back to the 'basic' = %_file_size_mb% MB, and then $fmtnum(%_file_size_mb%) MB
The 'basic' displays as 1234.56 MB and the other displays as 1,234 MB
BTW, %file_size% is smart (always 2 decimals though) but it adjusts to GB, MB, KB etc, I would prefer to keep the units consistent just to make it easier to review
I was trying to figure out how to get some of both:
the 1000's separator and only one decimal so that it would display as 1,234.5 MB
I did try (from reading the manual) $fmtnum($num(%_file_size_mb%,1)) MB but the $num() seems to be ignored (I was hoping I could fake it out)
It would seem to me that adding a second parameter to $fmtnum(x, y) where optional y (default = 0) is the number of decimals would be a nice feature to add
Meanwhile, try this:
$fmtNum($div($add($div($mul(%_file_size_bytes%,100),1048576),5),100)).$div($right($add($div($mul(%_file_size_bytes%,100),1048576),5),2),10) MB
Thank you
That really works well
