I have a weird way of doing things, but basically I created a tag for "original group" (I am using the ORIGLYRICIST tag to do this) so I can more easily find artists based on the group they are from, and their name. So, a made up example, if the artist is "Beyonce", I will have it set the ORIGLYRIC…

[image] krissasaur: I want an ACTION if at all possible that I can apply to everything without having to edit it every time. You do know that the equivalent to the converter>Tag-Tag is an action of the type "Format value"? The converter has a preview so that you can check the expression for …

You could filter for NOT ORIGLYRICIST HAS ; which would indicate that the additional enty is not there yet. Then run the action

Here is a thread that deals with removing duplicate entries in a list: [image] Merging several Tag Fields into CONTENTGROUP Support ... and here it goes ... Note: If we could sort a delimited itemlist within a tag-field, Mp3tag life would be much easier! If we could rep…

The problem is if the entry is already there, so it is adding it twice. If I have the artist BTS, and run it, it becomes "BTS; BTS."

How would you know what to add to BTS? How would you know whether you processed a file or not if the semicolon is missing?

That is a lot of stuff i can't even begin to understand how to implement... So do I just add these somewhere (idk where to add them lol) $regexp(%ITEMLIST%,'(?:^|,)([^,]*)(,\1)+(?=,|$)','$2') $regexp(%ITEMLIST%,'(?:^|,)([^,]*)(.*)(,\1)+(?=,|$)',',$1$2') $regexp(%LIST%,'(?i)(?:^|,)([^,]*)(,\1)+(?…

Honestly, I think I am just stupid, sorry, but it isn't working. I did this and have no idea if its correct haha. [image] It looks like it filled the blank I left in REPLACE MATCHES WITH with the same thing that was in REGULAR EXPRESSION [image]

[image] Merging several Tag Fields into CONTENTGROUP (?<=,|\A) ?([^,]),(?=.?(?<=,) ?\1(?=,|\z)) Also just tried adding exactly this and got [image]

Yes, that is what it more or less says in that thread. The correct expression would be: $regexp('Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift','(?:(?<=,)|(?<=\A)) ?([^,]*),(?=.*?(?<=,) ?\1(?=,|\z))',) as said in the thread: You can use it in Convert>Tag-Tag Just replace 'Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift' with the corr…
