Sorry, I usually hate asking someone to do the work for me except I cannot figure this out.

I am a ReplayAV user that recently upgraded.  
My custom conversions did not carry over to the new version.  
I since corrected that problem but had to manually convert the existing files.  
This did not create the tags needed for my mp3 player.

Current filename example: Roe Conn\_05111408\_01.asf.mp3

Tags I would like filled from that info:  
Artist: Roe Conn  
Album: 5/11  
Title: 14:08  
Track: 1

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I did figure it out finally.  
I was trying to do it all in one fell swoop.  
Here is what I ended up doing:

```
<u><b>Convert > Actions</b></u>
   <b>Action Group 1:</b> ReplayAV Filenames
      <u>Action 1</u>: Replace with regular expression
         Field: _FILENAME
         Regular expression: (.*_..)(..)(..)(.._.*)
         Replace matches with: $1-$2 $3-$4

<u><b>Convert > Filename - Tag</b></u>
   Format string: %artist%_%album% %title%_%track%.%dummy%

<u><b>Convert > Actions</b></u>
   <b>Action Group 2:</b> ReplayAV Tags
      <u>Action 1</u>: Format value
         Field: TRACK
         Format string: $num(%track%,1)
      <u>Action 2</u>: Replace
         Field: TITLE
         Original: -
         With: :
      <u>Action 3</u>: Replace
         Field: ALBUM
         Original: -
         With: /

```

Please reply if you can simplify these steps
