So I have a few custom tags that I can look up in Tag Inspector that I want to be able to use in MusicBee, specifically the #Helium Custom Field tags:


Is there a way to use Custom Tags to get it to MusicBee?

Yeah, this is actually pretty easy. Just create new tags (under Define New Tags) with whatever comes after the TXXX/ part, and then configure your custom tags with those fields. Check the wiki for more info.

I strongly advise making backups first just in case something doesn't go as expected.

Hmm yes that was the first place I looked, but it seems like I can only choose predefined tags in the dropdown menu and not write my own. I'm talking about the "Save To Music File As Tag" option.

click 'define new tags...' below list of custom tags.
