Hi everybody,  
I just found this utility and it is GREAT...I just downloaded, installed e started to use it as it does everything as I expected to do. I'm a lazy one but with M3T I felt the wish to organize my 14GB of MP3 files. ![:w00t:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/cb01eca72fe9339ff6f3ec9f1e3c5fe002be0f0a.gif ":w00t:")  
The only problem I had was with some "R.E.M." files.  
They were named "r.e.m. - something.mp3" and I wanted M3T to rename them to "R.E.M. - Something.mp3".  
I modified the case conversion action and i added the . to the "Word begins from/after any of:"...and M3T renamed the file to "R.E.M. - Something.Mp3" (even the M of the file extension).  
Is there any way to bring the extension back to the "lower" mp3? I was thinking on something like "\_ALL except FILEEXT"...

Thanks,  
Andrea. 😆

I tried to figure out how to solve this issue and after looking at the help ![:book:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/0036d5b68f6226c53f6c68abfd0a7b8096fd4505.gif ":book:")  
I think that I solved:

1. I left the . as word separator in the standard "Case Conversion" configuration
2. I added a replace (Mp3 with mp3, whole word) action after the Case Conversion
3. It seems like it works! 😆

Thanks,  
Andrea. 😆
