Overview
The TINT scheme is a TIN-based scheme for referencing individual tracks.
A TINT is a reference to one track of one side of one album, and is of the form:
- <TIN>-<Side#>-<Track#> e.g. 00008637207120-1-1
where
- - represents the separator character of choice.
- The variant using separator \ is called TINT\ (likewise TINT/) and is appropriate for TINT-based filing
- Side# and Track# represent decimal numbers without leading zeros.
TINT fields and tags
TINT field values are usefully stored in the audio file tags, for example:
- TIN - stored in a custom sub-field of the Album field, e.g. King of Rhythm 1937-1944 [00008637207120]
- Side# - stored in the particular format's equivalent field, as either the entire tag value or where the tag value is in two-part format, the first part e.g. the 1 in 1/2 for the first disc of a two-disc album. E.g.
- Track# - stored as normal in the format's Track Number field.
