I posted this at mp3tag.de but no response. I've been sat at my computer for 6 hours and I just can't do it. If you can help, I love you.
I've just finished tagging my apple lossless library with an artist value of eg "OutKast; Jay-Z" and a band tag of eg "OutKast" as this works as I want in iTunes and SqueezeCenter. I then batch convert to mp3 for iPod. Sadly iPod doesn't pick up the band field, despite iTunes doing so, so now my iPod browsing is _really_ screwed! I need to somehow remove all bar the main artist from the artist fields, and copy the remainder to the end of the title. Currently... Title = In Your Dreams Band = OutKast Artist = OutKast; Killer Mike; Janelle Monáe Hopefully!.... Title = In Your Dreams [Feat. Killer Mike; Janelle Monáe] Band = OutKast Artist = OutKast I know this should be possible with RegEx, and I've tried but I really, really can't get my head round RegEx! So a plea for help please! A caveat... Artist field can have any number of artists in it, but the main one is always first. Values entered into artist field exactly as written, ie use of semi-colon followed by space to seperate artists. Obviously there's no way text-matching or length-matching will work; the artist field can contain anything!
