Hello,
At first, I want to apologize if I am not in the right section to expose my question, and also for my bad English (_luckily Google translation is here ..._  )
So I come to you today because I tried for a few days to do several things with my mp3, I have tried to read the manual, but the French translation is approximate and does not allow me (given my level ) enough to understand clearly what I should do.
(_I get very well to replace the single characters, but no more than that_)
I would delete part of the field "_Filename_" but as one to the other information changes.
For example: **David Guetta - The World Is Mine - Extended Version.mixversion\_in2\_ibiza.mp3**
I would like this: **David Guetta - The World Is Mine (Extended Version).mp3**
Is it possible? I think that using regular expressions it should be, but I do not speak English very well (_if not at all..._).
Could you tell me the procedure to be done in "Action"?
Thank you in advance for your answers, but congratulations for this software is "_Magic_"! 😉

If you have the correct information in the tags, then use the converter Tag-filename.
If you only want to modify the filename then use the converter filename - filename:
Input mask:
%1 - %2 - %3.%4
Output Mask:
%1 - %2 (%3)
