In TINT-based filing, users who browse the library driectory directly e.g. in Windows Explorer might find it useful to have all album folders labelled with <Artist> ; <Album> held in the name of an empty file. This may be done automatically as follows using Mp3tag:
- 1 Load and select all album track files
- 2 Click File | Export and create a new export config containing e.g.:
$filename(C:\My Music\%_parent_directory%\%band% ; %album%.txt)
WARNING: Broken by Mp3tag program incompatibilites on V2.47 and later. (The absolute path is necessary to make the destination independent of the Mp3tag current directory. Improvement needed - make script automatically determine absolute path.)
- 3 Ensure '[X] One file per directory'
- 4 Click OK.
Note: when using the above to update existing labels, because it does not delete existing labels you should manually delete existing labels first.
