Extract number in filname, replace track number

[killer00]

Hi MP3TAG team,

I've looked through similar posts and I cannot find my answer, so I was hoping you could help. I'm using the Mac version and am trying to do the following:

1. My file names are structured like "69 - Solardo - VIP Business.m4a"

Thanks in advance,
Killer00

It would have been interesting to see which ones you tried as then it would be easier to go on from there.

Try Convert>Filename-Tag
Mask: %track% - %dummy%
