Hi. I just installed mp3tag about 2 hours ago.

I am enjoying the many abilities already, especially renaming multiple files/directories on the fly, as opposed to 1 by 1.

This brings me to my question.

I created a new Action to rename files and create directories following my preferred structure.

D:\%artist% - %year% - %album% - %\_bitrate%\%track% %title%

This works great, for files that are CBR, however VBR files create numerous directories (1 per file with its own bitrate)

2 questions:

is it possible to (and if so how can i?) get all VBR to still be in 1 folder?

is it possible to have the bitrate surrounded by [] as opposed to seperated by a dash.

ie. this ~\> va - hed kandi - 2005 - spring sampler 1.05 [vbr] OR [cbr] depending on files.

I hope this is clear since i am up late
