Is it possible to recreate or mimic the current behavior of the _Genre_ field which has a preset drop-down item list, to a custom user list? Examples of custom user lists are _Country_ and _Language_ which I would like to add to Matroska/MKV/MKA.

I would like to put in my most used or so list of _Countries_, _Languages_, and others and hopefully their unicode character counterparts as well (for example: Macau / 澳門, Ukraine / Україна). Especially since I won't be able to actually remember and manually type in such non-English unicode characters after all.

Thanks in advance.

See this thread:

> One of my custom tags is "subgenre" for my classical collection. I'd like to have things like "Piano - Solo" or "Concerto - Flute", but I don't want to have to memorize the exact formatting of every new subgenre I create. Is there any way to define preset values (that would appear as a drop-down list) for custom tag fields within MP3Tag? For example, the "Genre" tag has drop-down choices such as Punk or Ambient. Thanks, Chad

OK, thanks. It's quite a powerful _Action_ feature.👍😃
