Greetings friends,

Basically instead of ARTIST - SONG in TAG, I want ARTIST and SONG separated in their proper categories. Any way to automate this, or I'm going to need to do it by hand for each of them?

Better example: instead of Michael Jackson \_ Thriller, I want Michael Jackson and Thriller in their proper categories.

Thanks!

Fixed this by using guess values.

%TITLE%

%ARTIST% - %TITLE%

Saved me a bunch of time. What a powerful program. 🙂
