is there a way to put everything after the "-" into parenthese
example :
This Is Your Night - Berman S House Mix
renamed to
This Is Your Night (Berman S House Mix)
You don't tell us, if this is the content of your TITLE tag or filename something else.
However, a simple approach could be to replace the - (dash space) with an opening brace like this:
$replace(%TITLE%,- ,'(')
and in a second step you add a closing brace at the end of your tag, for example
%TITLE%)
You can do this in Convert Tag->Tag (with a preview of the result) or in an Action like "Format Value".
Please be aware that this only works if you have only one - (dash space) in your tag.
This will not work for examples with mutliple - (dash space) like:
This Is Your Night - Berman S House Mix - expanded version
yes, it's for the title, sorry
i don't understand. are you saying i need to do 2 separate actions?
With the above easy to understand solution
Yes.
Of course you can group the two steps together in 1 Action Group.
but so far it's now working.
There is no indication to use a "Replace" action.
i don't know what you mean ?
First Action:
Second Action:
Great. this is what i needed. perfect.
There is no need for 2 actions. You can also achieve the goal with just 1 action or the converter Tag ->Tag.
Action Format Value or Converter Tag - > Tag
Field: TITLE
Format string: $replace(%title%,- ,'('))
Sure, there are always several ways.
Could you please explain how your solution exactly works?
The replace-function replaces the dash with an opening bracket and at the end a closing bracket is added.
