Artist to Artist Sort etc.

[oceanorigami]

Hey guys! I'm rebuilding my collection using iTunes and qaac 2.36 (version at the moment). I'm also using Grammartron to create some consistency in the text. The thing I've run into is iTunes purchases come with the Artist Sort, Album Sort etc. I can copy the Album Sort and Artist Sort myself but for some bizarre reason it uses Title Sort as well! I can't possible copy the Title tags into the Title Sort tag manually, is there some way of doing it all at once using mp3tag?

Let me know

Also why does iTunes even use Album Sort, Artist Sort, Title Sort it's just strange IMO.

Do you know the grammar rules for building an iTunes sort field for Artist, Album, Title?

To copy one tag-field content to another tag-field use ...

Action .....: Format value

Field ......: TARGET_TAGFIELD_NAME
Formatstring: %SOURCE_TAGFIELD_NAME%
