Hi Oggy,
Before ripping, within the TITLE of the double-CD, I deleted 'Disc 1' and 'Disc 2'; so that just the ALBUM name is present (ie. "Dark Magus"):

It placed all of the tracks within one single folder. But now I have 2 x track 1's, 2 x track 2's, 2 x track 3's etc:

No doubt I must have cocked the job up again! Or else, could you RE-NUMBER the tracks (ie. 1 ~ 6)?
Many thanks,
Paul

Hi Oggy,
Do you LEAVE any Meta-Data which is shaded/grey as it is, please? Obviously you have the option to delete it (via the small red 'X'):

Much appreciated.

I check everything on every rip. I'd rather make sure everything is correct before ripping so I don't have to do it again. I'm getting too old for that and besides, this is my third attempt at digitizing my music.
Now, there are instances where judicious metadata- or tag-editing will fix problems but, again, I'd much rather each rip is done correctly in the first place.
Thanks very much Oggy,
I spent another hour on trying to get it right.
I took a screenshot of each stage of the process, but have not, as yet, tested it out on my Walkman. Hopefully it will work this time.
I really appreciate your kind help.
Cheers,
Paul

Thanks a lot JH,
Well I have learnt - over the past fortnight - that checking and double-checking is imperative. Much better to get the job done correctly in one pass.
In the late 1990s, I ripped a ton of my favourite CD collection to Mini-Disc. It took months! And Sony MDs cost circa £5.00 per pop. You had to faff around shrinking the album sizes by copying your least favourite tracks in Mono! This was the only way the free up space.
But MD players were great for recording gigs and lectures.
You may or may not not (from my introductory thread) that I - unwittingly - originally ripped over circa 300 x CDs (using 'WMP') into 'WMA'. One of the biggest mistakes I ever made.
Paul
