Help Needed> Metadata from file name export question
Posted: Sat Jul 21, 2018 4:43 pm
Hello MM,
I imported my music collection and made a real mess here. My albums show as track number + album name. So every album is listed as many timed as it has track. How do I collapse them into just one album when viewing Entire Library>Albums?
My files are all stored with common naming convention; drive letter\Music\Artist\Album\Track number Track title.Format
Example
M:\Music\3 Doors Down\Away From the Sun\01 When I'm Gone.flac
Included in the album file is the artwork files as well.
How can I use MMW to export this data into Metadata and just make it look like one album showing just cover art in Entire Library>Albums view?
Windows 10 64bit
MMW 4.1.27.1875 Pro

I do see the Tools>Auto Arrange Files and think this is my answer, but asking the forum before I make worse.
Looks like if I tag with M:\TEST\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Artist> - <Track#> - <Title> I will get correct output I am asking for? I tested some files and like the way they display in windows explorer, but MMW still seeing as wrong albums? What am I missing here? Thanks.
