So I was trying stuff and stumbled upon this :
I selected "Electronica" Genre in "Genre browser"
then I selected all tracks listed & edit
The resulting genre field shows only "Big Beat" in the "Genre" Field
see image :


Sometimes it shows the tags for edit properly, sometimes it doesn't, can't really pinpoint why so far.


sidenotes: I have a related wish for musicbee in the post above, but I want you to know I'm not trying to cut corners as you complained some do already :p

That means that all the files have Big Beat in common.  Any tag that is not in all the files (or not arranged the same in all files) is not shown there.  However, if you open the tag inspector you will see all the tags from all the files.  Any changes you make in the tag inspector (removing a tag, editing a tag, etc) will be applied to all the files, regardless of whether it had that tag to begin with.

For instance, if some tags said Electro and you edited it to say Electronic, all files would now have the Electronic tag, regardless of whether they had the Electro tag originally.

@psychoadept, what you say is the intention, but there is a bug with the matching for multiple genres which is fixed in the latest patch version

I'm on 3.0.6092 and Steven may have updated since then, so I would say you need to get the patch from the first forum topic.
