Old answer:

This seems the only replacement you have to do.

Please ensure, that Mp3tag is closed before you follow these steps.
You can try it with the freeware editor Notepad++.

  1. Open your text list (with all your composers for example) in Notepad++

  2. Open the search & replace box in Notepad++ with CTRL + H and
    Enter \r\n as "find what" and \u000b as "replace with" text

  3. Ensure that the selected search mode is "Extended"

  4. Click on the button Replace all

The text should look similar to this (VT instead of CRLF):

(if you don't see the "invisible" VT or CRLF characters, click on the "Show All Characters" button
in the toolbar image )

Close the search & replace box

  1. Copy this entire text from the first to the last character into the clipboard with CTRL + C

  2. Open the Mp3tag configuration file %appdata%\Mp3tag\data\usrfields.ini in Notepad++ too

  3. Search the tag panel field with the value= where you want to add all this entries to the drop down box. For example the manually in Mp3tag added COMPOSER field (the #number may vary!):

  4. Paste the entire content from 5. after custom_values= with CTRL + V

  5. Save the configuration file %appdata%\Mp3tag\data\usrfields.ini

Now open Mp3tag and have look if all your new added entries appears in the drop-down box of your selected tag panel field.
