    Problem with Dynamic folders

    I have ripped some of my CD's with DBpowerpro. My problem is that when i rip from the same artist the second album is put directly in the first folder, no seperate folder all the songs in the folder and no jpeg artwork is on the second album. I know i can change this somehow in the naming menu. Problem is i dont understand the for me cryptic way of managing folders and tags.

    I have not adjusted anything so its dead standard as delivered.

    How can i fix this so that the albums from the same artis are put in same folders with seperate folders for each album and with artwork in each of them .

    A sentence i can copy into it would be brilliant. How should i set this up too be most flexible,.

    I will be using Sonos.

    Thanks in advance.

      garrard: all you needed was a \[album] after the artist portion, as Spoon did above.

          I have about 500 CD ripped into .flac ordered as follows:

          Artist name / Album Name / song Name -Track No.

          Is it possible to use Batch Converter to obtain m4a 320 files with the same
          folders naming scheme ?

          A sentence I could copy would be greatly appreciated.

          Thanks

            If you have Reference, you can use dynamic naming to make a new folder structure from your file's tags.

            Put this in dynamic naming:
            [artist]\[album]\[title] - [track]
            and then put the main directory, like "C:\m4a", in the "Folder" box.

            <spoon edit> Changed / to \
