This doesn't work in the context I'm using it in. (Perhaps my fault for not explaining that this is part of a much larger string.)
Here's my full Naming string:
Code:
[IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\[IFMULTI]Disc [disc]\[][track] [IFCOMP][artist] - [][title]
(I'm doing quite a bit here... I know..)
For the purpose of discussion, I'll assume an album artist of "The Beatles" and an album name of "The Best Of".
The above string will show up as:
The Beatles\The Best Of\01 Track Name
I'd LIKE for it to show up as:
Beatles, The\The Best Of\01 Track Name
Making the change you suggested, I end up with the following naming:
Code:
[IFVALUE]album artist,[IFEQUALS]artist,The [DEL]1,4,[artist][],[TRIM][DEL]1,4,[artist][], The[][],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\[IFMULTI]Disc [disc]\[][track] [IFCOMP][artist] - [][title]
Which formats the string as:
Beatles\The Best Of\01 Track Name
For albums with artists that don't have "The", it somehow just completely cuts off the artist name. (So, the example shown in the naming dialog comes up as "\Immaculate\05 Holiday"
So, I'm back to my original string (using a semi-colon):
Code:
[IFVALUE]album artist,[IF][SETLEN]4,,,[album artist][],=,The ,[GRAB]5,,[album artist][]; The,[album artist][],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\[IFMULTI]Disc [disc]\[][track] [IFCOMP][artist] - [][title]
... and then manually renaming the directory after everything is ripped...
Suggestion?
Thanks
