CD Ripper Naming - Tagging Disc subtitles or using [SPLIT] on semicolons (';')

[PyroRocker]

Hi,

I'm trying to set the name of the directory that CD Ripper rips to. I would like it to be basically `year - albumname (Disc discno - disctitle)`. The disc segment is omitted for single disc releases, e.g. '1969 - Led Zeppelin' and '1993 - In Utero (Disc 2 - Live 1993 / 1994)'. Any solution to achieve this would be appreciated.

I haven't quite succeeded yet. I see that CD Ripper appears to join the 'album' and 'discsubtitle' tags that it collected from Musicbrainz with a ';' so I looked for for a disc subtitle or an original album tag to bypass the join, but didn't spot them. After that, splitting on the ';' seemed like a good work-around, but I can't get [SPLIT] to break on a ';'.

Is it possible to split on ';'? Is the original problem solved in an easier way?

Thanks

Give an example link to a release on MusicBrainz so we can comment.

Sure, e.g. https://musicbrainz.org/release/0702...b-74aa742f6ad4

• Disc 1 would be: 2008 - Definitive Collection (Disc 1 - Led Zeppelin I).
• Disc 8, 2008 - Definitive Collection (Disc 8 - Presence)

If there were no disc subtitle or if it wasn't a multi-disc set, there wouldn't be any parentheses.

p.s. I can't edit the unapproved pending post, but if there were no disc subtitle, (Disc 2) is fine.

That tag is specific to music brainz, there is no disctitle tag online ordinarily.
You could create a custom tag called disctitle and fill it in manually before ripping. Edit also the album title cut the part needed from it and paste to the custom tag and use

[tag]disctitle[]

Sounds good.

If it is possible to add ';' to the valid characters that can split, or adding documentation on how to split on a ';' that would also work!

The actual tag value was ':' later it became ';' because ':' cannot be used in a filename, it should split on ':' though.
