Preserving Source Path and Filename:

[bigbten]

I want to maintain my original naming convention and convert the files to a new folder. When I'm in Batch Converter and click "Convert", the dialogue box has output location and I click "Folder" to where I want the FLAC files to end up. My problem is I can't click "Dynamic" because it's greyed out. I want to use "[origpath]\[origfilename]", which is the default already, but I can't figure out how to. Please help. Thanks.

Re: Preserving Source Path and Filename:

You need dBpoweramp Reference installed for that option.

Re: Preserving Source Path and Filename:

You should remove your order number from this posting (edit it out). This would allow others to install using your account.

In your email is a download link, click it to install the registered version, after install it should say Reference Registered on the control centre.

Re: Preserving Source Path and Filename:

Thanks for editing out my registration number. That was dumb on my part. I uninstalled all of dbPoweramp and reinstalled. Most everything is working but I need just a little more help. This is an example of what I want: C:\Users\Owner\Music\A - Flac folders\Jay Beckenstein\Eye Contact. This is an example of what I get with the present settings: C:\Users\Owner\Music\A - Flac folders\Users\Owner\Music\Jay Beckenstein\Eye Contact. Present Settings are: (Output To) Music\A - Flac folders\Source Path\Source Filename; (Base Location) C:\Users\Owner\Music\A - Flac folders\; (Dynamic Naming) [origpath]\[origfilename]; What should I do to get it the way I want? Thanks, Brian.

Re: Preserving Source Path and Filename:

What exact values are set in each section of the dynamic naming page?

Re: Preserving Source Path and Filename:

On CD Ripper screen, lower left, on PATH row, click set and browse to the following folder and save this:
C:\Users\Owner\Music\A - Flac folders

on the naming row underneath, click set, then in top box, delete the naming string that is there now, and then copy in the following naming string. (Note, I dealt with automatically adding a disc number to the track number in the case of multidisk CDs. I assume you want something like this.)

[IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[artist][]\[album]\[IFMULTI][disc].[track] - [title][][IF!MULTI][track] - [title][]
