Sometimes music files have Genres that are spelled differently than my pre-defined Genre: "Hip-Hop".

My question is, can I make an Action that will auto rename the Genre such as "Rap" to my pre-defined values, i.e. "Hip-Hop"? Or "Soft-Rock" "Hard-Rock" "Metal-Rock" to just "Rock"?

I have an action for changing the variation of "featuring" to ft. and it's amazing. If I can run a couple of scripts somehow to auto rename the Genres it'd make things incredibly better!

Thanks and this program is pretty awesome.
