Thanks, thought that might be it. Anyway, for some reason the track number (%tn%) is not displaying correctly and is shown as the disc number (%dn%) instead. Any ideas what might be going wrong?

Any ideas what might be going wrong? what view / ui? %tn% works fine for me. Also double checked the code and it returns the trackNo throughout the entire code base, so there is no way its reading in the disc number |

I use track number in several custom views without any issues. Is there a chance you have them swapped in your file? |

I was using the first option in the Minimalistic list i.e. TrackNo. (%tn%) Trackname (%tr%) Duration (%du%). However, after some fiddling about and checking Track and Disc numbers using the Tag Editor, weirdly it seems to be working ok now. No idea why though.

Another query - is there anyway to insert double quote (") characters e.g. around the track name?

There has been some discussion about adding function to use something like $char(xx) to insert specific items like commas and other reserved characters, but this has yet to be implemented. I would assume if/when it does this would work in this case as well. |

Hi guys,
%co% to show the comment Tag doesn't work for me. When I am in Album view and open an album to see the listing of the songs, this tag is not displayed. Tried %cp% instead and this shows the artist as expected.

Is there any way to put %tr% and %du% into one Line, BUT %tr% left and %du% right? Any markup example would be NICE.

Tried %cp% instead and this shows the artist as expected. From the first page, comments can only be used in the Now Playing, Playlist, and AudioFile lists. Yuo can use them in the Album browser. COMMENT = %co% - (Now Playing, Playlist, AudioFile) |

Hello, I am coming from this Reddit post, and the question still remains, how do I change the way the artist tag is being displayed from the default: artist,artist,artist,...to the format the tag is literally presented in the metadata, in my example it would be: artist; artist; artist; ...I see no information about that in the main post so I would need help from an expert.
Thanks in advance

The semicolon is a separator character for multiple artists. GMMP handles it by placing each Artist, with a comma between them. You can try using $replace(%ar%,”, “,”; “) to put it back the way you want to see it. But the consequence would be that all sequences with a comma would end up with a semicolon. Not sure you would want this. |

Not sure you would want this. $replace(%ar%,%comma%,;%space%) whitespace gets trimmed and commas are used to separate the params, so thats why i made the variables for them. This request is common enough i'll update the OP to give that as an example |
