Title Tag Replacing Data with New data

Support

Hi Guys

I was adding the Artist Name to the Title Tag along with the Dynamic Range of the Track
IE Cigarettes & Alcohol, Oasis (DR5) because my UPnP server couldn't deal with AlbumArtist and Artist for compilations so i used Various Artists as AlbumArtist

My UPnP server now deals with this but i want to retag my compilations and remove the Artist name from the Title IE Cigarettes & Alcohol (DR5)

All my Tags have the comma after titlename and DR is always in Bracket

Is there any easy way? IE search for everything after comma and before the Bracket and replace with blank?

Please show us some real TITLE tags you currenlty have and how exactly they should look after the modification.

Something like
OLD: My old TITLE tag, with Comma, and brackets (DR5)
NEW: My new TITLE tag without Comma and without brackets

OldTitleTag Cigarettes & Alcohol, Oasis (DR5)
NewTitleTag Cigarettes & Alcohol (DR5)

Hi Sorry i want to keep the Brackets and Dynamic Range just get rid of the Artist

That becomes tricky, especially if you have TITLE tags like this:
What about Doe, John and Doe, Jane (DR6)
or
My song title from Emerson, Lake & Palmer (DR7)

If the field ARTIST is filled, then an action of the type Format Value for TITLE may work:
Format string: $replace(%title%,', '%artist%,,)

Thanks will try a few things and let you know how i get on

Cheers
