Is there a way to bulk remove all of the parentheses and squared brackets around text in the title.
For Example:
Anyway You Want It (Live)
Heaven For Everyone [Single Version]
Change To:
Anyway You Want It Live
Heaven For Everyone Single Version
I really don't want to do this individually
Thanks
In a way you would have to do it individually as you have to replace each parenthesis with nothing.
So create an action of the type "Replace" for TITLE
Search string: (
Replace string:
(leave empty)
Do this for the remaining types of brackets. You can join all the replace actions in one action group.
Alternatively, you create one action of the type "Format value" for TITLE
Format string: $replace(%title%,'(',,')',,'[',,']',)
The same format string can be used in the function Convert>Tag-Tag for TITLE
Hello
I need the same but want for all fields, not just title how would the action look
Thanks
Have a look at the documentation and the "Special Fields":
If you choose _ALL please note, that you also remove the brackets in your lyrics for example.
The band Was (Not Was) will get a different name.
Titles like
Wanted Dead or Alive [Live - Radio Edit] will become Wanted Dead or Alive Live - Radio Edit
Or
On the Radio [Radio Edit] -> On the Radio Radio Edit
Or
Russian Radio [Radio Moscow Edit] -> Russian Radio Radio Moscow Edit
Is that intended?
