RC3: Auto-Organize & "Unorganized trac [F4034 RC4]
Posted: Tue Nov 27, 2007 4:19 am
There is a difference in the way the Auto-Organize process & "Unorganized tracks" Node process work. I will show the information for 1 track that's effected, then give the results from both processes.

Mask
Proper Filename
Snippets from DebugView after going to the "Unorganized tracks" node with the aforementioned mask already set up.
There is the information I've come up with, hope it's enough to find out what's going on, but if it's not then let me know and I'll try and explain clearer, or whatever is needed to help clear this up.
Track
This is the track we shall use for our example. Now, the mask I used is one that contains a billion different $if()s so I shall provide a mask that would produce the proper filename based on those.Genre: Rap
Album Artist: Nas
Album: Stillmatic
Year: 2001
Artist: Nas
Track #: 03
Title: Got Ur Self A...
Mask
That mask should produce a filename such as:C:\Documents and Settings\Chris\Desktop\My Music\<Genre>\<Album Artist>\<Year> - <Album>\<Track> - <Title>
Proper Filename
That's actually the filename that Auto-Organize will give with that given mask, which is correct. It's the "Unorganized tracks" Node where the problem lies.C:\Documents and Settings\Chris\Desktop\My Music\Rap\Nas\2001 - Stillmatic\03 - Got Ur Self A....mp3

It gets the directory perfect, but the filename however is not consistant with what has already been presented by Auto-Organize. (the same filename that MM2 gives with the exact same mask) For the "Unorganized tracks" node, it wants to drop the ending periods, how ever many there are. This effects any track that has a title ending with one or more '.' (with the current mask obviously, I haven't tested it with a filename ending with an artist ending with a '.' so...)* [1444] Auto-Organizer : Begin checking track C:\Documents and Settings\Chris\Desktop\My Music\Rap\Nas\2001 - Stillmatic\03 - Got Ur Self A....mp3
* [1444] Auto-Organizer : Should be in: C:\Documents and Settings\Chris\Desktop\My Music\Rap\Nas\2001 - Stillmatic\
* [1444] Auto-Organizer : Track name should be: 03 - Got Ur Self A.mp3
