Hi, Is there any possibility to have a field like the "Genre" one, that has a user-defined file, able to insert extra options (genres/styles) to choose from? My thing is: I'm using field "Comments" as Country (believe that doesn't exist in ID3v2 tag...), and would like to have the option to choose…

[image] rsfreitas: Still it'll be 80+ Actions If you really have tracks from more than 80 countries - I think that the main benefit with actions is that you shortcut repetitive (or error-prone) manipulations. So I would think that a list of countries that you use most would help you best. A…

No, there (currently) is not. See e.g. this thread: [image] Suggested Feature: Allow User To Add Items To Drop-Down Boxes General Discussion Hi I am currently adding tags to a lot of Latin America audio tracks. In the tag panel I have added fields such as MOOD, COMPOSER…

Thank you @ohrenkino for your reply! Sad though... :disappointed_relieved: Such a good idea to implement!... Hope @Florian will think of it some day!

If you do not know this already, I would like to draw your attention to this thread: [image] Action Submenus General Discussion I discovered that I accidently created an empty submenu in my Actions list so I realized it was possible I could not find it in the documentatio…

@ohrenkino Do you mean something like this... ? Using something like this as "Actions"??? [Image2] [Image4] Still it'll be 80+ Actions... but it'll work!!! :grinning:

Yes! Your last comment is EXACTLY what is was thinking!!! (And yes I have a "small" eclectic playlist, up till now with 8100+ tracks from 79 different countries!). I can do the top 20 or so with Notepad+ in a minute or two! One of the tracks is from a band called Bliss, which I'm listening now, and…

Is there another field like "Genre" with user add possibilities

If you do not know this already, I would like to draw your attention to this thread:
