There is nowhere a "Filename" column. At least it is not implemented in the versions downloaded from the https://downloads.mixxx.org/builds/master/release/ location.
Even in today's last version, there is only a "Location" column which was always there. This show a very very long string which is the whole file path, not the filename. It is useful, but it also can be really long, practically unreadable, if the collection is very big and has a hierarchical structure.

Anyway this is definitely a regression. Older versions of Mixxx were working as good as should, at least for Mp3s. We could read under Title Track1.mp3 or filename.mp3 or 02.whatever-filename.mp3 etc if the files were saved with this filename. The Title field of the database was populated with this (Not the metadata tags but it is OK) and we could have an idea at a glance. Now we have to scroll left - right to see what is each empty field.

It is a disappointment to see that a good program lacks the most common feature in every other program out there from the simplest to the most complicated.

Thanks for your time.
