Sorry if this question is too basic. I wish to created a playlist that runs through several folders (directories) consecutively. Example:
TITLE
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Thanks for replying. I am unable to understand the information given in the thread you gave.
If the use of this software presupposes a level of competence that I lack, please ignore this message and I'll try my best to find other ways.
This is an example of directories I wish to tag and play consecutively.

mp3tag opens these directories and groups all the tracks numbered (1) together, and (2) and so on. What I wish to achive is a tag file that plays the above 48 tracks in order from book Ia, Ib. IIa, IIb. If this is not possible, or I've got the wrong idea, or I'm using the wrong software, or I lack the intuitive knowledge, just let me know. I won't bother you again. Thanks.
I think it should be possible to load all three folders into MP3tag - or all the folders you want to have in your playlist.
Sort the files by _PATH - if you do not have that column, create it and enter only for field "%_path%".
(see e.g. the help for that: https://docs.mp3tag.de/customization/file-list)
This should sort the files as you show it in your example.
Alternatively, you can drag the files into the correct order while alt-clicking on the file icon and dragging it.
Select the files in MP3tag, once they show the correct order, then use the function
Menu>Playlist (selected files)
I hope this does it.
Many thanks for your rapid and helpful reply.
