I've been trying to tag a few series of radio comedies I've got, and I can't quite get it to work the way I want. I get close but not quite there.  
As an example, the Filename is  
Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation - s01e01 - 1993-09-30  
What I'm trying to do is have the album called  
Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation - s01  
then I want the e01 to be the track number 1, but i can't work out how to split it

Finally What I want to do, is have the track called "Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation - s01e01" which is the only bit I can do 🙂

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious if someone could point me in the right direction

thanks  
Colin

For the album name you could start with the Filename -\> Tag converter ALT + 2  
and the format string:  
`%album%e0%dummy%`  
This writes the left part of the filename until `e0` into %album% and throw away the following right part.

For the track number you could start with:  
`%dummy% - s01e%track% - %dummy%`  
This throw away the left part of the filename until `- s01e` and keeps `01` in the %track% and throw away the following right part.

This simple solution just works for your given filename.  
If your season is s02 or the episode is higher then 09 you have to adjust it.  
Or you let us know the highest existing number in Season and Episode 😉
