I’ve followed some of the examples I found but still can’t get it to work.
My titles say “Name of Song” [SC Karaoke]
And variations of that, ie, just [ or [SC, ect….
So I have been trying to replace/delete everything from “[“ on.
I mean, I know they are Karaoke , don’t need the reminder, plus it will show up in the listing of the Karaoke software I am using.
Thanks for the help
Are there really inverted commas around the title followed by the stuff in parenthesis? A real example would help as every character matters.
You could try Convert>Tag-Tag for TITLE
Format string: $regexp(%title%,'(.*) \[.*',$1)
If you want to use an action, try "Format tag field" - but try the converter first as the preview shows you if the result is what you want.
What does this screenshot tell?
Have you tried the suggestion?
@ohrenkino's suggestion works fine even for your example with parenthesis/round brackets:
Please show us a screenshot of what you have tried so far as Format string.
Yes, sorry it did work, but I thought you wanted to see a screenshot,
Many thanks
Thanks for the help; is there a link in the online manual that talks about all the variables that can be used and the proper syntax? I would like to learn how to do this for myself. I have some programming in my past.
