Hello everyone.

I am begginer and lost girl, non-english speaker. Please be nice. I love this software. I have this problem with it.

I have some filename: 01. Chapter 1.mp3 and I need it to the "Title" Window.. Ok, I push "Filename - Tag" .. It works! 🙂 but.. I give this rule "%title%" .. and the title is "01. Chapter 1" ... What can I do if I want only "Chapter 1" without 01.? Can you help me, please? Thank you. 🤯 😘
