Hi

I'd like to use mass tagger to change all tracknumbers that are single digit to double digit

ie: 9 to 09.

I'd like to either have this done in tags or the filename (since I just need one or the other)

Thanks for any help

Use the masstaggers "format value from other fields function. Set the destination field to TRACKNUMBER and use
CODE
$num(%tracknumber%,2)
as your formatting string.

Thanks paesano !

Oh, and another question

If I were to do the same, but with TITLE, and use $caps(%title%), would that make title's "Like This Blah Blah" ?

Yes it would, and this is covered in "titleformat_help.html" that can be found in the install directory. IIRC "h" is the default shortcut key to bring it up.

I personally prefere $caps2(%title%) as it will keep upper case.
Example: "Anarchy In The UK" won't turn into "Anarchy In The Uk"

But that of course, doesn't make sense if your tags are all upper case to begin with...
ssteven
Thanks !

I hopefully have one more question:

If in my titles I have "Title Here feat Artist Here"

How can I use masstagger to take "Artist Here" and move to a seperate tag called Featuring?

I think you could use "Guess values from other fields" with source set to "%artist%" and format set to "%artist% feat %featuring%". Please note that you need to adapt that for tracks that use "featuring" or "feat." (mind the dot), basically anything different from plain "feat".
ssteven
Hmm, that didn't appear to work. Gives me no results at all

I not trying to change the subject at all, but I was wondering how I could do this.

In my tags under %title% i like to keep the "featuring artist name"
i.e. "Joe - Song name feat. P. Diddy"
I would like to figure out how I can rename the file "%artist% - %title%.mp3" but remove the "feat Name".

So in theory....
old file name: "Joe - Song name feat. P. Diddy"
new file name: "Joe - Song name"
but still keep the tag as "Joe - Song name feat. P. Diddy"
I know this is possible, I just can't figure out how to remove the feat name from the file name.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks Eric

If your title tags are like "what a cool song title (feat. john doe)", this masstagger script will work for adding %featuring artist% AND removing the " (feat. john doe)" from %title%. I know it isn't really well done (and could be done like foosion already told), but at least it works well. I've been using it since the masstagger started supporting scripts smile.gif

Oh, and the .mts -> download.

Just load masstagger and select "Load from file" under "Scripts" and it should work.
