Hi friends I have a specific requirement here. My Indian music collection are CD rips. Majority of the cds have multiple movies (albums) I have ripped and tagged them to match the track number on the CDs For example if the CD has 14 songs and under 2 different movies/albums, I have tagged them a…

[image] ohrenkino: in the combobox for FIeld. Hi @ohrenkino amd @LyricsLover Thank you so much for your patience in replying to my stupi queries. I have finally got the solution with least possible minimal effort :slight_smile:

[image] ohrenkino: If you want to do it completely automatically, then save the name of the original folder in a user-defined field like %mypath% formatted with %_folderpath%. Thanks so much @ohrenkino for the detailed steps. Could you please tall me how to save the name of the original fol…

[image] navarannan: Could you please tall me how to save the name of the original folder in a user-defined field like %mypath% formatted with %_folderpath%. Either, create an action of the type "Format value" for MYPATH (you have to type in that name) Format string: %_folderpath% Or use th…

[image] ohrenkino: Either, create an action of the type "Format value" for MYPATH (you have to type in that name) Format string: %_folderpath% Or use the Converter>Tag-Tag in the same way. Still not getting it, Apologies :frowning: Here are the steps I followed. [image] [image] [image] …

[image] navarannan: What should I select in the "Field" field? You can't select a user defined field (Mp3tag doesn't know what custom field you like to fill). You have to type in MYPATH manually as Field name entry.

[image] ohrenkino: MYPATH (you have to type in that name) in the combobox for FIeld.

[image] navarannan: I really wish if a rest tracknumber for each album would have been available with mp3tag. There is no concept of an Album within mp3tag, each file is treated as an individual title. The grouping structure for folders or Albums can be what you want it to be. [image] nav…

[image] MotleyG: This is really the root of the problem. It is quite uncommon for a single disc (or CD) to have more than one Album. So I can’t see that this will justify a change to the design of mp3tag’s track number wizard tool. Not for a single use case such as you have presented. I'm a n…

[image] navarannan: Each CD contains songs from two to three different movies. I don't doubt that there are many discs that follow the scenario you are describing. Even in western regions, there are countless compilation releases with different Artists. But the track list still runs in order …

[image] MotleyG: If you were to play this CD in any standard player, the track numbers would not reset to start back at 1 simply because of an artist change. This is the pain I'm having with roon. If you tag the multi album disc (each movie/album belonging to a different composer/album arti…

[image] navarannan: This is the pain I'm having with roon. So this is more a problem that perhaps Roon should look into resolving with this information, as mp3tag is actually displaying the details correctly. I am struggling to actually understand why Roon is even grouping these tracks togeth…
