    Naming convention - more elements

    I suspect this comes as a feature request since as far as I can tell, dBpoweramp doesn't do it at the moment:

    Is it possible to add more elements to the useable fields in the naming convention? I would like to use fields like 'Album Artist Sort' to put files in a folder such as 'Beatles, The' or 'Merchant, Natalie', which would come from the Album Artist Sort tag (the Album Artist tag proper remains in the normal reading order).

    You should be able to use [tag]artistsort[]

      Awesome thanks!

      FYI, for anyone else reading, a couple of points to note:
      1. There's a space between 'artist' and 'sort' (so: [tag]artist sort[])
      2. The '[tag]' doesn't seem to be necessary in the '[IF' logic bits, so: [IFVALUE]album artist sort,[tag]album artist sort[]

        An update: whilst this works for dBpoweramp CD ripper, it doesn't appear to work for RipNAS. I think this is because RipNAS doesn't fetch the Album Artist Sort metadata - is this because it is based on an older version of dBpoweramp? I seem to recall that it is only since I updated to R14 that dBpoweramp has started fetching these tags. So, will RipNAS be updated to match the 'full' dBpoweramp?
