Dynamic naming question

[gambrinus]

Hi, I just purchased Reference yesterday because I want to convert my FLAC collection to MP3.
All my files have the mediatype tag set which i (mis-)use for information about the release type (studio, compilation, live, etc...).

My folder structure looks like this

(Album) Artist\[mediatype] [year] Album\MP3\...

I use brackets [] for mediatype and year. Now the problem is the mediatype tag.

[[tag]mediatype[]]

returns the correct value and puts it in brackets. So far so good. Even if I insert it into the complete scheme for non-compilations it will work:

[IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[artist][]\[[tag]mediatype[]] [[year]] [album]\[UPPER][extension][]\[artist] + [album] + [disc]-[SETLEN]2,,,[track][] + [title]

Now I'm using a different scheme for compilations, so I add [IFCOMP] to distinguish:

[IFCOMP][IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],-= SAMPLER =-[]\[[year]] [album]\[UPPER][extension][]\[album] + [disc]-[SETLEN]2,,,[track][] + [artist] + [title][][IF!COMP][IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[artist][]\[[tag]mediatype[]] [[year]] [album]\[UPPER][extension][]\[artist] + [album] + [disc]-[SETLEN]2,,,[track][] + [title][]

Instead of

Madonna\[Studio] [2003] Immaculate\MP3\Madonna + Immaculate + 1-05 + Holiday

it will now return

Madonna\ [2003] Immaculate\MP3\Madonna + Immaculate + 1-05 + Holiday

and the Compilation part creates two additional subfolders.

Most likely it's a problem with brackets somewhere, but I just can't figure out. Anybody can help?

Re: Dynamic naming question

[tag]xxx[] would work and [xxx] would not unless it is a known tag such as [artist].

Have you tried:

([tag]mediatype[])

Just to see if the [ ] were not confusing it?

Re: Dynamic naming question

([tag]mediatype[])

Is working. Thanks for your help! Bug?
I would have to rename my whole collection, any chance this will work?
