Great little bit of software.

just tagged my whole mp3 collection

is there a option to rename the directory the mp3s are sitting in?

At the moment I've just got the artist name as the name of the folder/directory but would like to rename with the %artist% - %album%

There is the Format values action that supports \_DIRECTORY as field.
