Is it possible to use the filter to list all non blank Duplicates in the Lyrics tag?
Thanks

If you mean a comparison between at least two files then the answer is "no" as mp3tag only looks at one file at the time and does not compare any two files.

Wasn't very satisfying, right?
But honestly: all you can do is setup a column for the field that you want to compare and sort by it. So you have at least those close to each other that start with the same words.
