    Id Tags not changing file names

    Hey, when i edit a song name using id tags, i have to manually change the file name to match it. I was just wondering if i was doing something wrong or that's the way it works.

    Thanks

      I think you can use [ARRANGE AUDIO] utility DSP to do this in dbpa. But if not, you can easily do this in mp3tag. Just load up files, select them all, then choose from menu, CONVERT > TAG to FILENAME, and use whatever string mapping you'd like for the file name
      eg, just track * and file name would be:
      $num(%track%,2 ) - %title%
      if you want artist there in filename, something like:
      $num(%track%,2 ) - %title% - %artist%
      etc....
