and I can see it covers both Single Artist CD's and Comps. In *my* Folders it mirrors your above example perfect.(just artist/ Album Title/ Then track listing only.(I will continue using this naming string now) In SBT/ squeeze play menu in Album /Artist Etc..I Can see it still pulls in both Artist Name-Title. I Can only assume you take Artist Name away via the web Control/menu-settings. This worked great leaving me just Track titles.
My Comps in Squeezeplay/Controller settings are now reading : No. Track Title By Artist.
I again Assume in Menu Settings it pulls in Various Artists and sorts it. Great.
I have Stopped all ripping to sort my folders Now.I need to Use the Format String IN MP3TAG Given by you (garym) to batch up and correct number/title folders/Albums.
I also think I have too many sub headers (i.e. Jazz -Female,Artist Comps Etc..-about 25 in all!) I need to streamline them . Do you have any (garym) In your folders or just go A-Z.??
Another bit of "info overload" is On my SBT GUI , when playing(with Artwork track title, Album name) a Comp on artist Name I get: Various Artists, Artist Name.
I dont really need to know its "Various Aritists" (I know that its a Comp already).....Maybe I need to remove this in Album Artist(where I always put in "Various Artists" via Mp3 tag...???
Once done I can back up and Continue..
