    Tag from Filename not ignoring "Junk"

    I have some files named like this:

    15 Tones on Tail - Rain-Red West.mp3
    16 Bongwater - Rain-Red West.mp3
    17 Snowmen - Umbrella-Red West.mp3

    the "Red West" is junk that shows up in the mp3 tag as well as the filename.

    When I use "Tag from Filename" the following patterns do not match, and the ID3 tags stay the same as they are-

    Code:
    [track number] [artist] - [track]-Red West
    [track number] [artist] - [track]-Red West.mp3
    This pattern works OK as a workaround- it puts the junk in the genre field, which I can erase later-
    Code:
    [track number] [artist] - [track]-[genre]
    My requests-
    one of the first two patterns should have worked- the "Red West" should have matched and been discarded, just as the spaces and dashes are

    a "[junk]" field that matches anything, and is discarded
    a "[junk:NN]" field to match a fixed number of characters. In fact adding ":NN" to any field may be useful.

    thanks
