Using variable within tag

MusicBrainz Picard
1

Hi, I’d like to use a variable within a tag. For example, I have a book in 10 parts, with the title set to ‘A Great Story’ and the track numbers ranging from 01 to 10. I would like to change the title to be ‘A Great Story - 01’, ‘A Great Story - 02’ etc. What is the easiest way of achieving this please? Thanks a lot.

This is easy to do, but it is unclear whether you are trying to:

  1. Change how the files are named externally in the file system?
  2. Change how the files are tagged internally with data so that your player can display the track details?
  3. Both of the above.

You can do this in Options…/Options where there are separate settings pages for Tagging Scripts and File Naming scripts.

There is excellent documentation of the details of how to do this on the Picard documentation web pages
