Padding with 3 numbers

Hello,

I have an album with the number of tracks goes above 100. And the padding for the from the auto numbering wizard is not working. It does appear we can have a padding of 3 numbers , only 2.

Is this correct or I did I miss something ?

Cheers

I get leading zeros to pad 3-digit numbers:

Please note that the windows explorer has problems with 3-digit numbers with leading zeros. It interprets them as octal values instead of decimal ones.

my problem is not coming from explorer but mp3tag :

Are those MP4 files?

there are m4a indeed !!!

I thought it was coming from

But apparently not…thanks

any work around ?

No. MP4 tags do not allow zeros for padding as the field for TRACK is purely numeric.
MP3tag would sort the file correctly and so would also decent players.
If you need padded numbers e.g. in the filename, then use $num(%track%,3) instead of the simple %track%
