I just love your program ... tried godfather and tag&rename (or whatever it's called) but yours was the only one that really did what I wanted without all the excessive "fluff"

Only two requests...

1. When tagging files based on their filename, it would be nice to be able to reuse a field and having mp3tag append the content. For example:

2. It would be nice with a folder overview instead of a dropdown box. What I mean is that I'd like to point the program towards S:\Music and then see the directorytree below and easily navigate the structure. (now, this isn't as important, since CTRL-D works fine too, just an idea)

```
Filename: S^2 Works Disk 1 - 33 - B-4 [Fly Me To The Moon] Guitar & Piano [First Collection].mp3
Filter : %album% - %track% - %title% [%comment%] %title%

```

Which would then produce:

```
Album: S^2 Works Disk 1
Track: 33
Title: B-4 Guitar & Piano [First Collection]

Comment: Fly Me To The Moon<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

```

Have you already tried using one placeholder more than one time? 😉

Sorry, but this is not planned. You might speed up things by using drag'n'drop from Windows Explorer.

Yes, I did try once but without the desired result. So you mean that this already is implemented? ![:huh:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/f15ee73c0fd9ec3b0db7481f0558638f8ee224ce.gif ":huh:")

Hmm... going to try again when I get home.

Yes, this works as you suggested here 🙂
