Modify the "Keep path" option in File Selector

[xja]

In dMC File Selector, it would very useful to allow the user to specify how many parent directories up from the song file to keep, rather than the entire path.

For instance, if my songs are in:

d:\music\source\artist\album\song.mp3

I would like to specify that it keep 2 levels of the path, ie,

\artist\album\song.mp3

rather than

\music\source\artist\album\song.mp3

So change the "keep path when convert" option to a box where I could enter a number, and maybe add a check box if I want to keep "entire path" (ie, the way it works now)

There are two options in use here. There's "Use Original Folder" and then there's "Keep path when convert". Use one, not both.

However, I do agree with wanting to keep part of the path and not all.

Yes, I am referring to when you would use "keep path" and specify a different destination folder.

You are best converting all to one folder, then use the 'File Arrange' utility codec to arrange them as required.
