auto rename my itunes song names.

Post by 0sAmA_BiN_BaCoN »

So i downloaded many songs from youtube. Way to many to rename them manually.

They're all called like the following one : "Acrux - let you know" So "Artist - title" all my songs are like that.
I would like to see "let you know" as the title of the song and "acrux" as the artist, because now in itunes, i see : "acrux - i let you know" as one title and there's no artist .
So on my ipod i could search in "artists."
Of course i know i could do that manually, but that would take days of work ...
I did that earlyer, but then my pc crashed so i have to start over again

anyone knows how to help me ?

thx Jules ;)

You need to update the tags of your files using filename tokens
use %F1 for Artist and %F2 for Title, the default options will separate the file name correctly.
