![]() without the preceding blank space and the dash- as it did before the Action above was changed.ĭetlevD: Action "Format value". The file names are named in the desired manner i.e. $char(0)'If no match, then return nothing, else return number from directory n Filename.txt (The "" representing the blank space) It definitely adds a blank space in the beginning of the file name: I think I may have lost the plot completely, and I have to check all the Actions in this Group again. Are these hyphens an imperative, and how does one tell when to use them, or not? Is it perhaps discussed somewhere so I can read more about its application?Įdit: I have now tried the revised Action, but the result is identical. I have never used the hyphens, and yet it still seemed to work in other Actions, which I have used up to now. Thank you for spotting the error, DetlevD. ![]() Please ignore the portion between brackets if it does not make sense. (Furthermore, is there another, perhaps simpler way, to derive each individual disc number from multi-disc albums- AND keep a single-disc album number blank? For instance, derive the disc number by counting the number of folders, and sequentially number them? In such a case, how would the correct number sequence be determined- if not from the folder description?). Is it possible to revise the script to take care of this situation, while still allocating the appropriate individual disc number to multi-disc albums? I prefer to leave the disc number field of one-disc albums, blank/clean. There is, however, one drawback in my own application of it: When the script is applied, it will also number the single albums with disc number 1. Presently, the above script by DetlevD, seems to best fit the circumstance. $char(0)'If no match, then return 1, else return number from directory name' Furthermore, I do not know how to construct a script to apply whenever I have to derive the disc number from the second set of examples given above. However, it will be nice to see an optional script, which provides for leading zeroes in the disc number as well.įrom what I have learned so far, I was able to construct a suitable Action Group, which were successful, but I am certain there is a much better, more efficient way to trim the two first two characters, "CD", so only the numerical character is displayed. I wish to derive the Field: DISCNUMBER, from the folder/directory by means of a suitable script. Sometimes, when the name/title of the disc, as sub-folder, is known, I will add it so that the sub-folder title looks like this: When applying to more than one folder, then automatically reset the counter and calculate the peak value for each folder.For multiple disc albums, such as box sets, I usually name the individual discs, as an album sub-folder, this way - but only when each disc does not have its own specific subtitle: This does not work, when the peak number is lower than the counter number This works from 1 to 99 and formats counter and peak to two digit number strings. Pad counter number and peak number with a leading zero. In the german version the counter field can be spinned up to the value "10.000",īut the assistant takes it simply as "10" (=> bug).ĭefine the number of the peak value, when using the "counter/peak" format.Īlways count by 1 beginning from starting number.Ĭount by 1 from starting number and additionally store the defined peak value using the "counter/peak" format. ![]() The Tracknumber Assistant covers following methods and options:ĭefine the number to start counting from, low is 1, high seems to be 10000. This description may help you to understand. If you are unsure how to use it or what the result could be, then take a few test files and try out the different options. The usage of the assistant is self explaining. In the english version of the Mp3tag user interface you will find the Tracknumber Assistant in the main menu bar's "Tools" submenu: Mp3tag/Tools/Tracknumber Assistant. And I have been reading lots of threats which mentioned the autonumbering wizard, but neither these threats nor the help system tell me about this feature so please point me or guide me to information on how it works. I did my duty and read the frequently asked questions. ![]()
