Re: Duplicate title.

Hey daleb,

the problem is your naming. It is a good practice to split the CDs of a multi disc album into separate folders or to add the number of the disc into the file name (like I do).

thanks for info Dat Ei.

I got around it by rippin just the track again it came up in windows save as flac 2.Job done.Maybe if i change name of track slighty when listing that would do it.

In the Naming section of CDRipper, add disc number to the filename.

e.g. use [disc].[track] [artist] - [title] instead of the default [track] [artist] - [title]

For additional versions, I always add some identifying qualifier in brackets. Like...

Blowin in the Wind
Blowin in the Wind [Live]
Blowin in the Wind [Alt]
etc etc

This isn't just for preventing overwrites, although that's an obvious need, too. When you want to listen to these songs, you'll want some way to know which is which.
