> For example, I have a Beethoven disc that has 4 discs, so they are 4 CD folders under the parent directory. I want to do a rename of the parent directory, NOT the current directory of each of the four sub-folders. ...

**Rename the folder, which is one level above the folder, which contains the tracks. Action "Format value" ... oder ... Convert "Tag-Tag" Field: \_DIRECTORY Formatstring: %\_folderpath%'..\..\Folder New\'%\_directory%**
