Hello,

i downloaded this program yesterday and i think its great ![:w00t:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/cb01eca72fe9339ff6f3ec9f1e3c5fe002be0f0a.gif ":w00t:")

I have a problem though which i will try to explain to you.

I got this music-folder with about 300 songs and some of them had names like "01-XXX\_-\_Xx". I managed to get those fixed by using "Tag - Filename". But here's the problem, when i did this i also managed to get the albumname and the tracknumber too "Rave Allstars - Hard Dance Mania Vol.3 - 01 - More Than Words". I want it to be like this: "Rave Allstars - More Than Words".

So after a while thinking about what to do i selected all the files as before and pressed "Tag - Filename" again but changed the format to "%artist% - %title%" instead of the default one.

The weird thing is that the names doesnt change, i still got the albumname along with the filename.

My english isnt that good so i hope that you can understand me and the problem im trying to explain 🙂

Thanks in advance.
