Thank you for the sample. I have use the first one and it did work with a slight modification probably because I did not explain well what I wanted to do. Thanbks again it did work fine. :slight_smile:

Sorry, my bad, I have neglected that you need the tag-field TITLE to be filled from the filename, but not want to change the filename. I am glad that you have done it right by yourself.
