In v.3.27a I was not able to make Autonumbering Wizard work with discnumber. Whatever I tried, it set numbers for all disks to 1, regardless to the directory changes. I tried with both FLAC and ID3v2.3 tags, no difference.

My settings in the wizard are as follows:

 ![wizard](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/3X/0/d/0d0949cced6eb257f2500d2ceff983b6bdebde12.jpeg)

The results are as follows, note that the directories are different for 2 disks here, but the discnumber is set to 1.

I think you have to untick "Reset disc counter on change of"

See also the description in the documentation:

> **[Auto Track- and Disc-Numbering – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/converters/auto-numbering/)**

> The auto-numbering wizard allows for automatically assigning tracknumbers and discnumbers to files. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.
