Mp3tag seems a great work with many options. I have worked with many of these and it's best I have found since.

Still the option to extract track names form web page is probably missing? Or did I missed it? Sometimes it takes a lot of time to find everything.

For example from a page were is only on track list:  
[http://www.progarchives.com/Progressive\_ro....asp?cd\_id=9391](http://www.progarchives.com/Progressive_rock_discography_CD.asp?cd_id=9391)

It's not possible to extract track names form [progarchives.com](http://progarchives.com).

This is what a web source is supposed to do; not so simple anyway...

Look at the [Web sources](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/1681/1) section of the forum

Bye

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.  
I tried successfully to copy track list from web page to to a basic notepad, removed leading numbers from beginning track rows and saved as a text file. Then used convert "text file \> tag" command.  
Obviusly saving some time.

But is there any easier way to get file names directly from clipboard perhaps?

On the mp3tag web sources there are yet some 6-7 very basic web sources only.  
Even [progarchives.com](http://progarchives.com), [progreviews.com](http://progreviews.com) are missing.  
Apparently it's a rather new option yet and each site needs it own script.
