> Is is possible to rename a group of MP3 files, based upon a specific tag or tags, for example, rename a group of MP3 files based upon their artist and title tags, ideally including addition characters like hypens and single quotes in the rename instruction. For example, Artist - 'Title'.

This is easy to do with Opus and is described under [Renaming with Metadata](https://www.gpsoft.com.au/help/opus12/index.html#!Documents/Renaming_with_Metadata.htm) in the manual, as well as in several example topics in the [Rename Scripting](http://resource.dopus.com/viewforum.php?f=26) part of this forum.
