Perfect. Thank you. Will add these to the special characters.

This can be closed.

Hi,

Files rename and organize follow https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/WebHel ... nize_Files and Special Characters are reference to MediaMonkey.ini [FilenameMappings] so you can control there how they are handled.

You can use https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/num ... o-hex.html to get HEX Codes for MediaMonkey.ini

Certain unprintable characters aren't removed for @ grouping

The mask documents at https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/WebHel ... ormats/5.0 have <'Field'@n:1>, which I can use to squash to single letters for my prefix.

A couple characters don't seem to work:
∆AIMON
“Weird Al” Yankovic
These created an odd unprintable character directory.
Others like ¡Mayday! , ¥$ , -NSYNC , !!!, +44 did what I expected and squashed it to a '0' folder.

Figure these should also be in the filter that makes them 0.


Also, μ‐Ziq translates to 'M' but then when I try and move it, it says the file already exists (when it doesn't).
