Please raise the limit on the number of chars allowed in the filter, currently 30001.

Thanks.

I am really curious to see a filter that requires more than 30001 characters.

If I had 1000 random albums that I needed to pull up in Mp3tag, I would create a custom field and give it a particular value for those albums. The LAST thing I'd do is attempt to create a filter by album name.

I avoid that, since it requires modification to X0,000 track files on disc.

How would you do the above in Mp3tag... without creating a filter by album name?
