Add artist name metadata option to batch rename dialog
Affected Version
- Version: 45.1
- Distribution: Fedora Linux 39
- Happens with development Flatpak: Yes
Use Cases
I have a compilation album of songs from several artists. I want to rename the files with the template [Track number] - [Artist] - [Title]
.
I keep singles in one folder. I want to rename the files with the template [Artist] - [Title]
.
Available Workarounds
There are no workarounds short of manually renaming each file.
Difficulties
For people that have compilation albums, singles, or playlists, they may prefer to have the artist name in the file name of each song. Not having access to the artist name in the batch renaming dialog means they have rename each file manually or to turn to other tools like Ex Falso.
