Remove parts of name in file

Support
1

Hi

So I downloaded a ton of songs from a playlist on youtube and in the names it sometimes says [Electro] / [Dubstep] and when I do the %artist% - %title& command in converting the tag it picks up[Electro] / [Dubstep] as the title. But I wish to remove that text without having to do it 1 by 1.

Here's a screenshot of what i'm talking about. Is there any way I can remove those names without doing it 1 by 1 ?

Perhaps you simply need to do this ...

Action "Format value" Field ......: _FILENAME Formatstring: $validate(%TITLE%,'_')

... or ...

Convert "Tag - Filename" Formatstring: $validate(%TITLE%,'_')

Sure but that doesnt help me. The convert suggestion you gave me didnt fix it :frowning:

I fixed it with the suggestion you gave. Had to put in

$validate(%TITLE%,'_') $validate(%ARTIST%,'_')

Doing it this way you are doing it again ...
transferring the values like '[House]' or '[Electro]' from the column 'Artist' into the 'Filename' ...
but the result is what you didn't want in the first step, but now it is ok for you?
