Hi (again)  
I want to filter titles that have: 12" Mix  
(Only in this order) for example I don't want 12" Remix

I tried

title HAS "12" Mix"

But it doesn't produce the correct results

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Thank You

It's better but it still produces:

12" Vocal Mix

Which I don't want

That's worse ☹  
Also it's producing results without Mix in the title which is strange and is similar to my original attempt

Yes that's better!

Almost there 😀

Although I'm still getting: Original 12" Mix etc

I should have been more clear from the beginning

I'm looking to filter (12" Mix) not 12" Mix

Sorry for the confusion!

Thank You

Excerpt from the MP3Tag-Helpfile:  
`It is not possible to filter by strings containing double quotations marks. This is a limitation of the feature.`

And to counter that limitation I have made a rule among all of my file, that instead of quotation mark  
`"`  
I always use two apostrophes  
`''`  
  
  
A plain and simple workaround. Depending on you local settings [of the font] they might look exactly the same
