I'm looking for a minor function that would be quite useful to me; the ability to capitalize only the first letter after a "-" I also want to switch the positions of the track number and the artist, but that's not the problem I think. For example I have: Bon Jovi - 05 - Wanted Dead Or Alive I want: 05 - Bon jovi - Wanted dead or alive Any help is useful! ---

If the information is already in your tags, you can use ![:mt_ttf:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/922db76db5d45b2e558d10f3d8c25fb8bc04fd27.png ":mt\_ttf:") Convert \> Tag - Filename with a format string like $num(%track%,2) - $caps3(%artist%) - $caps3(%title%) ---

That works indeed, unfortunately not all the MP3's have tags ![<_<](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/5996dbb474c88b8f9fc49f09dc3858d081055a2d.gif "<\_<") ---

Then use ![:mt_ftt:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/6ab8d95b0c2a82cb4f9b0eb16ea87ad3a6575015.png ":mt\_ftt:") Convert \> Filename - Tag to fill the missing information 😉 ---
