foobar syntax

[sajtion]

i'm trying to tag some mp3 files and i need the correct syntax. basically what i want to do is like and example below

in name field i want to have songname + artist seperated by (-) as well as original fields of title and artists filled.


does anyone know how to come up with this?

You're not making much sense.

Are you saying you want foobar to show 'songname - artist' as a column in the ui while leaving the standard tags intact?

You can make a custom column for it.

Preferences>Display>Default User Interface>Playlist View
Click Add New Button at the top.
The pattern would be %title% - %artist%
Call the column TitleArtist
Click OK to close the preferences box.

In the playlist ui, right click on an existing column title (like Album).
Select Columns.
Put a tick next to your new custom header. We called it TitleArtist.
