-Brading Software Message Board +--Forum: Mp3/Tag Studio Support and Bug Reports +---Topic: Autotag from filenames: multiple fields started by punjabisingh Posted by: punjabisingh on Feb. 25 2007,02:09 i was wondering if i could use the same string to occupy multiple fields... track name: ---------------------CODE SAMPLE------------------- 01 - Singer - Track.mp3 ---------------------CODE SAMPLE------------------- use: ---------------------CODE SAMPLE------------------- <Tracknr> - <Artist/V2_TOPE> - <Title>.mp3 ---------------------CODE SAMPLE------------------- so what i'm asking is if there is a way to fill 2 (or multiple) fields from the same string? i could see this as a valuable feature (not sure about other users)? Posted by: Magnus Brading on Mar. 04 2007,12:26 I'm not completely sure what you're asking, but all tools using output templates can use the same field at an arbitrary number of positions, yes. Posted by: punjabisingh on Mar. 06 2007,00:27 well i just wanted to use the filename and put it in 2 fields... like i want to put the artistname into <Artist> and <V2_TOPE> (ie. original artist)... so if the mp3 filename is: 01 - John K - Cold Weather.mp3 i want to get the parse the "John K" string and put it in <Artist> AND I want to put it in <V2_TOPE>. I'm not sure how to do this? Posted by: Magnus Brading on Mar. 10 2007,13:58 Ah, I see. You can either use two consecutive rounds of the auto tag tool, where you use one of the <Artist> and <V2_TOPE> fields each time, or just one round with one of them, followed by a round with the Direct Tag Manipulation tool, where you copy this first one to the other. Then simply create a macro of the whole process, and it will always be accessible at the click of a single button. end |
