Thank you.
Would it be possible to add wma support ? I store every file in mp3 format, and convert wma files with Dbpoweramp. I can look into wma files with another program, but it would be great to look into the tags with tgf at first, if it's not a big work.

One tiny suggestion *if* it's possible without much effort. On AMG I notice I can't hit the enter key on the keyboard to submit the search form (searching for artist, album, song, etc.). It does work from an IE window or any other browser so it must have something to do with being rendered inside TGF. The workaround I use is just to hit tab and then spacebar--that works.

Like I said, this is extremely minor. Not even worth fixing unless it's very easy.

Hi Dimitris,

woohooooo, you're back! After a few years of silence after version 0.72 I thought the project stopped.
I searched but never found any real alternative for TGF, so I am very excited you are back!

And what a way to resurrect with version 0.80!!!

Welcome back Dimitris, looking forward to new developments.
I'll donate right away!

Cheers,
Mischa (mistabasta in former runboards forum)

A new version of the best tag editor - ever! Fantastic!!!

Have to admit it took me a short while to get used to (I hate reading instructions) so I did wonder where the manual tag facility had gone ;-)

I have an ever-growing collection of live bootlegs and The Godfather is absolutely irreplaceable when it comes to correcting/adding tags and album art. Can't imagine ever using anything else.

One small problem, when using the File Tokens the %F2 seems to pick up everything after the first "-". %F3 does nothing. Am I doing something wrong?

Cheers

Keith

Please post a new thread in the requests/question section including your filename format and options used and I'll sort it out.
