Thanks for the great program!

I have saved a "Default value" under "Mp3tag Options" - "Composer" (as an example). The default value/name is showing correctly in the "Options" menu but on the main screen it will not show up. The value box is blank and clicking the drop down arrow under "Composer" (and other Tags where I have saved default values) only brings up "blank" and "keep".

Can you please help? Thanks

You would have to select at least 2 files.
