Hello !  
how do I add a "word" at the end of all the artists in my database ?

Example :  
I would like to add " mp3" or " flac" or " ape" after the different artist names. In one time.  
I tried "(keep) mp3", it didn't keep any of the different Artist names, it just wrote (keep mp3) everywhere lol 😉 !!!

Best regards.

This tag is part of the metadata inside your files.

BTW  
This is also covered in the FAQ:

Field specifies the tag field the formatting rule should be applied to. Format string must have the field placeholder for the field selected above and the string which should be appended. Example: If you want to append the string " xyz" to the current value of the comment field: Action type: Format value Field: COMMENT Format string: %com…
