TINT-based filing

TINT\ may be used as a music library's filepath format e.g. track 1 of disc 1 of the album having the TIN 00008637207120 is stored at D:\MyMusic\00008637207120\1\1.flac .

The TINT subfilepath is fixed forever. It contains no metadata, so avoids metadata correction causing inconsistentcy or breakage of references from e.g. playlists. The TINT subfilepath is constant across multiple libraries, allowing playlist to be transported, file extension and content set permitting.

To ease identification when browsing the folder tree directly, each album folder may contain a file named <Album> - <Album Artist>.txt or .htm. This can contain track metadata.

To ease location of a particular album, there may additional subfolders holding descriptively-named links/shortcuts:

  • "!Explore by Album title" holding links/shortcuts named <Album> - <Album Artist>.lnk
  • "!Explore by Album Artist" holding links/shortcuts named <Album Artist> - <Album>.lnk.
