Format Strings

This page explains the use of format strings for File Name to Tag and Tag to File Name conversions.

Opmaak

Strings of any format with properties wrapped in percent signs (%).

Voorbeeld

Format String: %artist%- %title%

Filename: Artist1 - Song1.mp3

When running File Name to Tag conversion, this format string and this file name will create a tag with an artist of Artist1 and a title of Song1.

Supported Properties

  • titel

  • artiest

  • album

  • jaar

  • nummer

  • aantal_nummers

  • albumartiest

  • genre

  • opmerking

  • beatsperminute (bpm)

  • componist

  • omschrijving

  • schijfnummer

  • aantal_schijven

  • uitgever

  • publicatiedatum

When using conversions, custom property names can also be used.

For example, a custom property who's name is ENCODER can be used as %encoder%.

Ignoring in File Name to Tag Conversion

When running File Name to Tag conversion, an empty %% can be specified to ignore part of the file name when reading it.

Voorbeeld

Format String: %%- %track%. %%

Filename: Artist1- 05. Song1.mp3

This format string and this file name will create a tag with a track of 05 and ignore the rest of the file name.
