Make friends with $caps() and $replace(). :)

$caps(%title%)					  - capitilises words in the TITLE tag
$replace(%title%,'(','[',')',']')   - replace all ()'s for []'s in TITLE tag

Obviously you'll want to change %title% to whatever tag you want to fix up.

OK, :wacko: could someone make these scripts for title,album and artist.

PLS i tried but cant do it :cry:

Should just be to replace %title% with %album%,%artist% seperatly. If you meant all three at the same time I think you cant do it. Think you need three separate ones. But then again, I am no code-wiz regarding this.

You could actually combine all of them into one big string.

$caps($replace(%artist% - %album% - %title%,'(','[',')',']'))

pink floyd - the wall - another brick in the wall (part 2)

becomes:

Pink Floyd - The Wall - Another Brick In The Wall [Part 2]

$caps($replace(%artist% - %album% - %title%,'(','[',')',']'))

becomes:

I hoped an answer from you.

But i dont know how to make this script :rolleyes:

Could you explain it (notepad save as mds file?) :wacko:

what font are you using in your playlist there? I have looked after a font that looks like that..

Well it's not my screenshot so I can't be sure, but that looks a lot like Calibri... size 8 & bold. It's one of the new Microsoft fonts that come with the Vista betas I think.

Need help how to use this string :rolleyes:

tOta: Here's the way I got that particular script to work:

Playlist right-click>Tagging>Edit Tags

Under Actions to perform click "Add"... choose "Guess values from other fields"

Enter Source format:

$caps($replace(%artist% - %album% - %title%,'(','[',')',']'))

Guessing pattern:

%artist% - %album% - %title%

Don't know if there's an easier/faster way but this does work.

nop doesnt work just adds new value example,

%artist% - %album% - %title% = $caps($replace(%artist% - %album% - %title%,'(','[',')',']'))

Only thing that works is when you change only the title by code that shannon posted :)

But you can add 3 actions (artist,title,album) and it will do the work ;)

Thank's, but too late, I've already figured out it was Calibri size 8 & bold :p

My fooby (much of the code is based on Brumal's config) It's 0.9 RC, so no Album Art etc.. :(

Are you sure you used "Guess values from other fields..." and not "Format value from other fields..." ?

I swear it worked for me... :) I'm at school at the moment so can't try again, but I'll double check it as soon as I get home.

    • Guess it's one of those things best used by devs to thoroughly test stuff.
    • is it all upside down there? traffic lights reverted too?
    • Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups by Paul Hill Fears that increasing government control of social media risks regulatory capture by the biggest social media firms were raised again recently. Bluesky’s chief operating officer said in an interview that social media bans for children and tighter regulations for social media firms risk creating a world where there are only a few social media platforms run by companies with the deepest pockets. Regulations on social media firms have been very lax since they appeared for mainstream users in the 2000’s. This gave Meta, Snapchat, and Google time to build up their user bases and get entrenched, with Meta being the most successful. Now that Meta has succeeded, it has been attempting regulatory capture. By pushing for more regulations of social media, Meta hopes to make it more difficult for rivals to challenge it. For its part, it doesn’t need to worry about the cost of regulation because it has a lot of money to spend, whereas startups do not. Speaking to CNBC, Rose Wang, Bluesky’s chief operating officer, said: “I support the protection and the safety of youth, the question that we have then is at what cost, because essentially what I’m scared of is in the long term, we’re headed to a world where there’s about three to five platforms, and extreme heavy regulation of those platforms, and basically the whole compliance teams of these platforms are 10 times the size of our entire team. So, basically, we’re living in a world where it’s almost impossible for smaller entrants to come in and build healthier spaces. These platforms have led to a place where the bottom line is the thing that drives what they do... so I understand why governments have to step in and regulate, because the platforms have done nothing right.” She said that while she is not against regulation, there needs to be more channels between the small to mid-sized players and regulators to help protect them. She says that big tech players, on the other hand, “who we know are circumventing regulation,” need to be regulated. Essentially, the Bluesky position is one of nuance, rather than absolutes. While Bluesky’s proposal may preserve competition in the social media space, it still doesn’t address the massive privacy implications these age verification measures introduce, such as handing over sensitive identity documents to access age-gated content.
