MusicBee Wishlist / Re: Line wrapping and row span in the Now Playing Panel
« on: September 09, 2014, 04:58:50 PM »
I think a better way to put this was to have the option to have, besides the check box to allow splitting multi-value tags into rows, the option to line wrap all the fields in the right panel, showing all the contents of the tags the user wants to display, including the line wrapping also in the file URL.

Yes, the save to database only is complicated...
Once I had to reinstall MB from scratch and lost all the play counts and last played. I would have lost the marked has having no lyrics files.
I had never noticed the "search specific field" LOL Thank you

Thank you, redwing.
A valid suggestion, but for me it would problematic to include the video files in the music folder.

Questions / "lyrics custom search" and "lyrics in highlighting rules"
« on: September 06, 2014, 12:56:45 AM »
I wonder if it's possible to do a custom search using lyrics tag:
<Lyrics> contain "a word"
and also the use of <lyrics> tag in highlighting rules, I often write "instrumental" or "no lyrics" on instrumental songs lyrics tag.
Thanks

Questions / Is there a formula that can verify if a file exists?

Is there a formula that can verify if a file exists?
This is to use in the highlighting rules, to verify if there's a local file with the video of the song.
Right now I have to use a tag to indicate if there's a video, but I would prefer if the program itself could verify that without having to write it in a tag.
I use the external tools to open the video file, with the path: [directory]\$replace($replace($replace($replace(<artist>,&,),/,),?,),:,)*$replace($replace($replace($replace(<title>,&,),/,),?,),:,)*.*"

It would be useful to have the auto complete and the multiple values option in the Lyricist tag, behaving like the other tags, such as composer, artist, etc.

MusicBee Wishlist / [Solved] add a tag value to several files with distinct tag values
« on: August 26, 2014, 04:24:52 PM »
A way to add a tag value to several files in which the existent tag values are distinct.
Example:
File A ? <composer> = x
File B ? <composer> = y
File C ? <composer> = x; y
*I want to add a common composer (z) to those 3 files.
Result
File A ? <composer> = x; z
File B ? <composer> = y; z
File C ? <composer> = x; y; z
This would be very useful also for the music credits or performers

Questions / Re: Is there a formula to replace invalid file characters?
« on: August 20, 2014, 01:03:38 AM »
A way to replace more than one character (useful for weblinks and external connections to web sites or files):
$replace($replace(<artist>,/,),?,) - $replace($replace(<title>,/,),?,)
This will erase all "?" and "/" existent in the artist and title
$replace($replace($replace(<artist>,&,),/,),?,) - $replace($replace(($replace(<title>,&,),/,),?,)
This will erase all "?", "/" and "&" existent in the artist and title
etc
$replace($replace(<artist>,/,),?,) - $replace($replace(<title>,/,),?,)
This will erase all "?" and "/" existent in the artist and title
$replace($replace($replace(<artist>,&,),/,),?,) - $replace($replace(($replace(<title>,&,),/,),?,)
This will erase all "?", "/" and "&" existent in the artist and title

If you still have the same MusicBee session opened go to Edit>Undo and click in "File tags: Edit - <number of files>" in which "<number of files>" is the number of files you modified in the last action.

Thank you, scampbll!
A function like the one you described would be ideal (replace a variety of characters at once) also for the web links.

Questions / Is there a formula to replace invalid file characters?
« on: April 09, 2014, 03:59:29 PM »
I have an option to open a video of the song playing, giving a path which has in it the artist and title tags.
Whenever the artist or tile has an invalid file character like the "/" in AC/DC, the path for the file to open does not work.
I was thinking about making a virtual tag "<artist> - <title>".
How can I replace the invalid characters with another character?
Thanks
