Due to its similarity with VBScript where quotes would be required its easy to be confused.

Looks like the documentation just needs updating to reflect the format properly, noting that spaces and quotes are unnecessary/bad.

Sounds like a help-file issue now.

Looked in the help file but did not see any instances where quotes or spaces were used in examples:

It's working fine. Just remove the spaces and quotes: :~)

Added as: http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=7603

Doesn't work in MediaMonkey 3 either.

I'm trying to set up a filename filter so that my compilation albums show up as VA - Mixname\## - Artist - Title.mp3
Which is a popular one (as opposed to the full 'Various Aritsts' title.


If I do this in the auto or by right clicking on a file and entering this in the box, it still results in "Various Artists" in the output.

$Replace(<Album Artist>, "Various Artists", "VA")

Expected behaviour: Should read 'VA' instead.
