I'm unable to use the "rename from tag" or "tag from name" options in the shell extention.  They show up when I right click on an mp3 file but if I click on rename to format <artist> <title> etc. (or any other one) it won't rename the file.  It looks like it's doing something but nothing changes.

I upgraded from 3.01 to 3.05 and I think that when It was unable to rename the files anymore.  It worked fine before and I used it often. Very handy feature.

Sounds very strange. Did anyone else experience this? Please tell me if you find any more info about the reason for this. Currently there's not much I can do since I cannot reproduce it. :( What operating system version are you running btw?

I think i found the problem....
I had checked off the "use filter for the operations below - process only files without any tag"  

I didn't notice that i changed it one day and forgot to change it back.... :(

maybe it should return to default after reboot.. to avoid people like me from accidentally changing it.... and not returning it to what it was.  just a sugestion, you might know of a better way around it.

thanks for looking in to it though.
