    Converting FLAC to MP3 is adding total disc track number to tag

    Hello,

    I was converting FLAC files to MP3 and noticed this:

    At my FLAC files there is not the total track count in the tag (ie. "1", "2").
    After converting them to MP3 track numbering has track count (ie. "1/12").

    I could find this setting only under CD ripper tag options but it is not helping in this case.
    Please look at the attached pictures

    Best Regards,
    Martti

    FLAC holds the track count as separate tag, which mp3 tag is not showing, where as id3 tags show track number and track count as the same tag.

      Thank You!
      One solution was to remove that tag using Foobar2000 and convert files after that.

      Is there some better solution for this?

        I do not think we have anything to automate this.

          in mp3 tag you can do Convert -> Tag-Tag

          Field: TRACK
          Format String: $regexp(%track%,'^(\d+)(/\d+.)?$','$1')
