I'm not even sure you need an action. I would just replace all ";" with "\" (which is what MP3Tag uses as a separator when there are multiple entries for a field). Actually, perhaps one does need an action to do that, I don't recall off hand, but if you do it's the most basic needed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ emalvick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35382 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108047 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list ripping@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
