    naming structure for multiencoder

    Hi, new to the forum, please help me spot my error:
    Using dbpoweramp R 14 still on a trial, so far quite impressed.

    I'm using multiencoder to produce flac and mp3 at the same time when ripping cds. I want mp3 and flac files in different directories under the same parent. I managed to have it ok, but had to reinstall the programme and now I can't get it right again.

    I have the following naming setup:
    [IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\[encoder]\[track] [artist] - [title]

    I want a resulting directory structure like:
    Madonna\Immaculate\mp3 (Lame)\05 Madonna - Holiday.mp3
    Madonna\Immaculate\flac\05 Madonna - Holiday.flac

    but instead I get:

    Madonna\Immaculate\multiencoder\05 Madonna - Holiday.mp3
    Madonna\Immaculate\multiencoder\05 Madonna - Holiday.flac

    in other words all flac and mp3 files end up in the same directory instead of each in their own. As I said, first install I had it working ok, and I think with the same settings. I've deleted the profile and created it again with the same results.
    Thanks.

    Set to naming strings (on the multi encoder setting page for each encoder0:

    [IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\mp3 (Lame)\[track] [artist] - [title]

    and


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

      thanks, I had that same string on both encoders. I'll give it a try later, but it makes sense, will report. Thanks again.
