08 - She's Got Soul - Jamestown Ft. Jocelyn Brown - Turn Up The Bass 19.mp3
I want to delete the album part in the filename but it won't work.
It seems that the %title% field has al information (track, title, artist, album) in it.
filename filename %track% %title% %artist% %album% ---\> %track% %title% %artist% won't work.
What am i doing wrong?
Please help anyone, tnx.

For your filename I would expect the separators to be included in the mask as well:
08 - She's Got Soul - Jamestown Ft. Jocelyn Brown - Turn Up The Bass 19.mp3
-\>
%track% - %title% - %artist% - %album%
(which has a hyphen between the fields just like your filename).
