Revisiting an old subject, last seen I think in:
The default syntax:
[MAXLENGTH]80,[IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][][]\[MAXLENGTH]80,[album][][IFMULTI], Disc [disc][]\[MAXLENGTH]80,[track] [artist] - [title][]
... puts all tracks into one folder and not into separate folders. If metadata is not found, then tracks are named generically and overwritten. Not helpful.
The syntax suggested by Garym:
[MAXLENGTH]240,[IFCOMP]Compilations\[album][IFMULTI]\Disc [disc][]\[track] - [title] - [artist][][IF!COMP][IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[artist][]\[album][IFMULTI]\Disc [disc][]\[track] - [title][][]
... also puts all tacks into one folder, despite the change in the syntax.
The very simple syntax suggested by Spoon:
[discunique]\[track] - [title]
... does rigidly put each CD into separate folders, sequentially numbered but not named, and not obviously part of the same album. This is a problem when batch ripping a number of different multiple CD box sets at once.
All three syntax versions do gather metadata, although it varies (curiously) with syntax.
Question: is there a syntax that actually works for CD box sets with multiple CDS, that will rip all CDs of a box set into the correctly named album folder but with each CD ripped into a separate subfolder thereunder? Note that I wish to batch rip a number of different multiple CD box sets all in one stack. I have about 6,000 CDs to rip, all classical.
I use a Nimbie USB Plus.
Thanks!
Kevin
