Dragging the music file from Mp3tag to force Spek, this file is removed of the list! But the Tag&Rename is not removed.  
See (or download) video - link:  
[http://foto2.inbox.lv/i\_edgars/Dazadi/Mp3t...avi?language=en](http://foto2.inbox.lv/i_edgars/Dazadi/Mp3tag-rename.avi?language=en)  
or

Why is that?  
Threw players WinAmp or BSpleier file is not thrown out of the list.

Drag&Drop is an interaction between 2 programs.  
After a D&D action the receiving program gives a feedback of what the action should be interpreted.  
The possible feedback ist the following:  
0 DROPEFFECT\_NONE Drop target cannot accept data.  
1 DROPEFFECT\_COPY dropping invokes copying.  
2 DROPEFFECT\_MOVE dropping invokes a move  
4 DROPEFFECT\_LINK dropping creates a link

The source application then acts accordingly. So apparently some of your applications report "move" and others "copy". Mp3tag does not influence these applications.

So the problem has a Spek application?

I do not know if it is a problem for the application. I assume that this application gives MP3tag the feedback that the d&d-action invoked a "move" so that the files should no longer be seen in the MP3tag files list.
