Hello There are many questions regarding multiple artists, but I don't seem to find the answer in the existing ones: My file has the name Artist1-Artist2-Artist3-SongName-Album.mp3 How do I make a Filename>Tag of this ? I could not find a %Artist1% or %Artist2% variable The app recognizes files…

The unique separators should separate different field types from each other. Have you tried your example with the double hyphens? Does that work better for you without actions? [image] LucasBS: Artist1-Artist2-Artist3-SongName-Album Would better be Artist1, Artist2, Artist3_SongName_Album …

In this case (the hyphen is no unique separator between the data items) try an action of the type "Guess value" Source: $regexp(%_filename%,(.*)-(.*)-(.*),$1==$2==$3)) Target format string: %artist%==%title%==%album% You would have to remove/replace the hyphens in ARTIST in a second step.

Hello ! Thank you for the solution Before I learn actions, let me make a question: The previous filename pattern was just an example, so: what if instead I put the Artists between double hyphens to make it more "unique" ? Filename: Artist1--Artist2--Artist3--SongName-Album.mp3 Would make the co…

Thank you! Very ingenious ! Your suggestion to "bind" all artists with a comma worked, since windows recognizes that character as a separator (Semicolon (;), actually. At least in my regionalized Windows) Feeling relieved not having to learn actions Only hope other platforms don't treat this sem…

Should I use ";" or "\\" or "-" as a separator? Support

To date I have been using a ";" as a separator for the Artist, Composer and Genre fields. I would then do an action of merge duplicate fields for these fields after ripping a CD (or after a bunch of CD's). This displays well with the music players that I use currently but whether if or I may want to use another player in the future I am wondering if there is a better solution that is more universal?. Been thinking about whether it would of been best to use the "\" as a separator or even a …
