I am not sure what you mean by "packaging size".

A way to sort files has been described here:

> [@Sort files by extension](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/sort-files-by-extension/65613):
>
> The file name column fails sort file names by their extension, for example \*.mp3, \*.wma, \*.m4a, .... .

and here is a list of variables to address various properties:

> **[Format Strings and Placeholders – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/format/#technical-information)**
>
> Documentation on format strings and placeholders to describe the structure of file names and imported data. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

Which one do you want?
