I had a couple of (iRiver) portable players that had problems with multiple disks differing only in disknumber - so I ended up numbering the tracks with the hundreds indicating disk number and the tens/ones indicating track number on that disk (so 101,102...;201,202,203... etc). There seem to be no portable players that have trouble with ordering in track-numerical order, even if there are gaps in the sequence. Then... in Mp3Tag, when I "rename base on tags" I use the following %artist% - %album% - CD$left(%track%,1)-$right(%track%,2) - %title% for artist - album - CDN-NN - title or if I have more than 9 CDs in a set, I use %artist% - %album% - CD$left($num(%track%,4),2)-$right($num(%track%,4),2) - %title%
I don't need to do things this way for SS/SC, but I'm doing it for the portables anyway - although I find I use it more often for audio-books and audio-lectures that I rip to mp3 or o/v so I can listen to 'em in the car, and I -really- don't want the first track on CD2 to be right after the first track on CD1. I haven't gotten around to writing a Mp3Tag "action" to convert track plus either DISKNUM or CD number in the title into a three or four digit track number. It wouldn't be that hard, but, again, I mostly use this for audio-books, etc, and they don't show up in the CD track databases anyway... -- bobkoure ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bobkoure's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14646 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42777 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
