Hi

I've got one problem with Mp3tag 2.33. When I want to change file name, using tag - filename option and mask:  
%artist% - %title% [%comment%]  
the result I get is:  
artist - title comment

When I've been using Mp3tag 2.26 everything was working fine - after using such mask I've received file names:  
artist - title [comment]

What should I do, to correct this problem?

Use **%artist% - %title% '['%comment%']'**

Also, please look at the following topic: [Important Changes in v2.27](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/1568/1)
