When using "Rename/tag from list" and setting the "parse trigger" with line containing something (for instance a digit), the first matching line is skipped.
I use this to skip "headers" in the file.

Workaround: Add a fake first line.

Please give a full practical example, and I will analyze it and fix it if it is a bug.

directory contains two files:

one.mp3
two.mp3

Input list file contains the following:
---
1;song1
2;song2
3;song3
--

File row format: "<TrackNr>;<Title>"
Case and fix used (mostly defaults, a few extra fields)
Filtering used, selecting extension .mp3

1. Settings->"parse trigger" not used:
=> one.mp3 gets trackNr=1, title=song1
   two.mp3 gets trackNr=2, title=song2

2. "parse trigger" set to ";"
=> one.mp3 gets trackNr=2, title=song2
  two.mp3 gets trackNr=3, title=song3

===============
You can always document around it, requiring a header line
(but I do not like this "solution")

The whole idea with the parse trigger is to activate the parser once the parse triggering sequence is found, and process what's after it in the input file, so your example seems to be in perfect working order to me?

It worked as documented, just not as I wanted: I wanted some kind of matching in the input file. I guess I read the documentation to confirm my wish.
(a little embarrassed)
