Is there any way to rename the [default Tag Field Mapping](https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping) in Mp3tag?

Some examples of how I want the tag field to appear in Mp3tag: -

- ARTIST becomes Artist
- ENCODEDBY becomes Encoded by
- DISCNUMBER becomes Disc
- LANGUAGE becomes Language(s)

Reason of this is because I am using [dBpowerAMP R12 Beta 2](http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?t=9739) to rip my CDs and this program has a really neat feature whereby ID3 Tags will be shown in the tooltip for the file in Windows Explorer.

But if I edit the tags using Mp3tag, tag field for the same thing will be shown twice but in different format e.g. DISCNUMBER (Mp3Tag) and Disc (dBpowerAMP Tag); PUBLISHER (Mp3Tag) and Label (dBpowerAMP Tag); MEDIATYPE (Mp3Tag) and Source (dBpowerAMP Tag); etc.

Is there a file which I can edit the Tag Field Mapping for the program so am not restricted to the default ones? Any help will be much appreciated as I am not familiar with scripting or programming.
