I have some classical music files where I'd like to fill in the Composer Tag, e.g. Mozart. But this is not immediately possible in the UI.
How would I go about to
1. manually fill in the Composer tag, or
2. extract the composer from the filename in the form
composer - work - title.mp3
Thanks for your assistance
Claus

Hi Claus,
you can add the composer field via Options \> Tag Panel to the tag panel and extract it from the filename using the placeholder %composer%.
Cheers,
Florian
