View Full Version : Folder convention when ripping CDs

When I rip my CDs (using DBPoweramp Reference) I want the tracks put into the following folder structure

Name of Artist - Album [Year]

Currently it is set at

Name of Artist

I thought I could change it under the naming window (bottom left corner of the CD ripper window). However, when I configured it to work like I wanted, the convention was right when the tracks ripped, but I would get a separate folder for each track. I want all the tracks in one folder.

Can anyone help?

Paste your naming scheme and we will help you fix it.

Weird, but it seems to work now. I deleted the naming convention I originally used before posting this message. I went back and recreated my preferred naming convention and everything works fine now.

I'm also trying to get folders setup the way I like.. currently when I rip a CD of a new artist I'll get a folder with the Artist/ then all of the songs.. I'd like it so that if I rip a new artist I'd get Artist/ Album/ songs , currently If I rip a CD with an Artist that already has a folder than I get all the songs just in the existing folder no album name. Can anyone help me here???

Click the default button to get to default naming, then add

[IFCOMP][IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],Various Artists[]\[album][IFMULTI] Disc [disc][]\[track] [artist] - [title][][IF!COMP][IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[artist][]\[album]\[artist] - [album][IFMULTI] Disc [disc][] - [track] - [title][]
