[alexander_no1]

It would help me greatly if K3b could load folder recursive.

Sorry, but I am not sure if I understand the problem. Do you want to open a folder which has subfolders in it? That is easy to do - you only have to open the folder and the subfolders will be displayed in it. Then you can perform operations on any files inside those subfolders.

No I want to load all files (including files in sub folders) at once so i can perform actions on them.
For example:

Musik\A\FOO
Musik\A\BAR

When I load "A" i want to see all files in A,FOO,BAR.
Maybe I am really missing something but this is not possible atm.

For example i want to give ALL my music under \Musik the tag "MYCOMMENT"="TEST". How can i do this at once?

You can achieve this behavior indirectly (using Kid3 1.0):

• Open the folder (e.g. Musik/)
• Tools/Filter..., All, Apply, then Close (now all subfolders are open)
• Edit/Select All
• Tag 2, Add, MYCOMMENT, OK, TEST, OK

Now all tags have "MYCOMMENT"="TEST". The second step (opening all folders) could also be done using, Tools/Rename Directory..., Next, Cancel.

Yes this is what i meant. Thank you!
It's a little complicated tough.
A option("recursive add files" or "select files in sub folders") in the "Open Folder" Dialog would be better for most people.
Thanks again for your help!
