It should be enough to replace %title% with $replace(%title%,?,) in the masstagger script (at least it was in 0.8.3).  I think I remember reading that there are issues with trying to replace '/' and '\', but I honestly can't remember the details.  Which version are you using, and maybe someone can offer step-by-step instructions.

If there is a good way to lowercase the content of parentheses, please contribute.

This is my masstagger renaming script, operating on variables before renaming:

If there is a good way to lowercase the content of parentheses, please contribute.

$lower($substr(%title%,$strchr(%title%,'('),$strrchr(%title%,')')))

Is this in 0.8.3 or 0.9b13? If b13, how did you get it to operate on variables before renaming? For me, in b13, I can't get this to work no matter what I do.[a href="index.php?act=findpost&pid=361148"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]

If there is a good way to lowercase the content of parentheses, please contribute.

If you for instance just wanted to lowercase only the contents of the parentheses in the title tag you could use this code:

Code: [Select]

$lower($substr(%title%,$strchr(%title%,'('),$strrchr(%title%,')')))

Otherwise, you could just use $lower().[a href="index.php?act=findpost&pid=361152"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]

Thank you. The code would be something like:
1. Using your code, output the lowercased content of parentheses.
2. Output everything from parenthesis until next paranthesis.
3. Using your code, output the lowercased content of parentheses.

This metadata:
Artist: The Baguettes
Title: (A Trip) To Heaven (Ça Sonne Bien) (Acoustic)
Tracknumber: 3
would result in this filename:
03- Baguettes - trip To Heaven ca sonne bien acoustic.mp3
which adheres to the abovementioned perl regexps.

Now I only have to write the code. Um yes, and what happens when there are more interlieved text and parentheses? Like: (A Trip) To Heaven (Ça Sonne Bien) Acoustic (Live)? Maybe I try too hard. Is there a regex plugin or is some $regex() function planned for the new 0.9 version?
