I have a great many files that use fields that have long tag data.
For example, in some videos of orchestral concerts I have a field called "Album Artist"
A typical entry might be:
- Beethoven Piano Concerto 5 - Lang Lang
- Schumann Piano Concerto - Yuja Wang
Or . . .
- Brahms Violin Concerto - Hillary Hahn
- Sibelius Violin Concerto - Joshua Bell
Or . . .
- Dvorak Symphony 9 - Berlin Philharmonic
- Mozart Symphony 40 - Concertgebouw
I would like to quickly and easily to a "find and replace" on the tag data in that one tag field such that the
- "Piano Concerto" gets replaced by "PC"
- "Violin Concerto" gets replaced by "VC"
- "Symphony" gets replaced by "S"
All other text in each entry would remain the same.
It is easy to do this sort of thing with file names, but I would like to know if a similar process is possible for other tag data.
Please advise.

See the help, esp. on an action of the type "Replace"
