> Kind of embarrassing, since I could swear I've asked this before, and can't remember the answer or find it in the forums. I'm browsing through the tags on some old tracks, and - for some reason - the "Year" in the Tag Panel is shown twice. For example: If Year = 1978 It shows in the Tag Panel as 1978\\1978 Can someone explain? Running Mp3tag v 2.49a under Windows XP.

Use an action of the type "Remove duplicate fields" for YEAR
