MEXP is used A LOT(!) for karaoke. I install and update karaoke systems in Tenerife bars & hotels, and roughly half of all the machines I deal with have MEXP on them for karaoke show-hosting.

Thing is, most of my clients have wonderful pristine ID3 tags on their karaoke MP3 files. Unfortunately, they have invariably sourced their tracks from many different places, and the filenames are a horrible jumble! Some "Artist/Title", some "Title/Artist", some "DiskNo./Track No.", etc. Not a problem if you just play them, cause MEXP does a fab job of sorting them by ID3 tag, but if, like me, you have the job of updating them and tracking corrupt ones, it can be a nightmare!

Currently, there is no filename or tag editor which can take the ID3 information and rename both the MP3 and the CDG. (If you rename only the MP3, the lyrics don't display, as the CDG file must have EXACTLY the same name as the MP3.)

Any chance Anders could have a go at putting a "Rename MP3+G from ID3" option in the tag editor? I doubt it would take much programming, and I KNOW lots of people would use it.

Extra suggestion here - make it a feature only of the registered version.... sell more licences! :twisted:
