I created an **ISRC** column and entered my ISRC codes using the **Extended Tags** editor. The ISRC values are clearly visible in the Extended Tags panel, but they do **not appear in the main track list view**. I’m experiencing the same behavior with the **Language** tag.
When configuring the file list, I used %isrc% for the ISRC column and the corresponding field for Language. I understand that the Extended Tags editor is the authoritative source of the metadata, and that the data itself _is_ being written correctly. However, from a developer’s perspective, I want to visually confirm that these fields are functioning as expected by seeing them rendered in the list pane alongside my other track metadata.

There is no automatism to add (or remove) columns from the file list or the tag panel.
Please see the documentation on how to customize these objects.

While you can reference any field which is, e.g., listed in the extended tag dialog as name via a placeholder %name% in Mp3tag, it's also possible to customize the UI using these placeholders. Customizing the Tag Panel The Tag Panel is the sidebar on the left of the File List that shows the fields to enter metadata. Besides the standard fields…

Thank you! After reading your replay, I reviewed what I was doing and realized my mistake. I input %isrc” and “%language” into the “Field” options instead of the “Value” options of the File List. Thank you again.
