Is there any easy way to filter out files, where ARTIST matches ORIGARTIST, and files where ARTIST does not match ORIGARTIST?

Pretty much compare two different Tag fields and filter by it... ![:rolleyes:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/3a79e8b0b7d169b30216785521d7c6f4f895c421.gif ":rolleyes:")

Filter for matches:  
"$if($eql(%origartist%,%artist%),1,0)" IS 1  
Filter for deviations:  
NOT "$if($eql(%origartist%,%artist%),1,0)" IS 1  
or  
"$if($eql(%origartist%,%artist%),1,0)" IS 0
