Rename filename with tags

Hello,

I want to rename File from Metadata, in this order: Title - Artist.
For example: Bailando (Feat. Descemer Bueno & Gente de Zona) - Enrique Iglesias
Or in a slightly different order: Bailando - Enrique Iglesias Feat. Descemer Bueno & Gente de Zona

I don’t know how to do that however. There are two sections, Mask and Compilation Mask. Which one do I have to edit? And what do I have to put there? Thanks a lot!

Can someone please help me? I would really like to buy this program, but I want to know how to rename those file names automatically

If the Is Compilation field is checked for a song (either manually or because when matched to MusicBrainz it has a secondary type of compilation) then the Compilation Mask will be used otherwise the Rename Mask will be used. This allows you to process compilations differently to non-compilations but if you have no need to do this just set both masks the same.

The masks uses the Javascript Expression language, the existing masks consist of some javascript functions and the mask itself at the end. to get the mask you want just change the last line to

title + ' - ' + artist

To get Jaikoz to actually rename the filename based on the mask run Action:File and Folder Correct Metadata from Filename

Thanks a lot for your help! Is there also an option to automatically add lyrics?

No Im afraid not, there are legal issues with this. I do want to add a plugin mechanism that would allow you to write plugins such as a Lyrics adders but this is not currenlty done

I understand, thanks anyway!
