== Mask ==

LEAVE DOWNLOADING TRACKS IN DL DIR UNTIL FINISHED AND THEN MOVE TO LIBRARY 

(first field = main music Library , ie D:\!!!The Library\) 

(second field = if statement CODE BELOW) 

<code>$if(&lt;Filename:10&gt;=incomplete,x:\&lt;Path&gt;,&lt;Album Artist&gt;\&lt;Album&gt; </code> 

(third field = track tittle with closing paren , ie &lt;Track #&gt; - &lt;Title&gt;)) 

== Examples ==

The effect of such a mask is to leave the 'incomplete' files in the dir in which they are created until finished. The 'X:\' is put in front of the &lt;path&gt; code (which functions to recreate the current path) , because my 'DL' dir happens to be on a different drive than the one than the one that houses my main Library. 

So 'If' filename, first 10 = incomplete , 'then' leave file in current dir 'else' (if filename is normal) , then move to default library dir and tag as normal. It should also be noted that both the default music lib and the default DL dir are both included as auto-scan at start up folders. This is a very simple and powerful mask because you can use it while DL files an not have to physically clean out that dir and move finished files to your library .... let the software do it ... might be some issues when DL software is not running in-line with MM ....cheers

= [[User:GammaScorpii|GammaScorpii]] =

== Mask ==

Normal:

<code>F:\Music\$MovePrefix(<Album Artist>)\<Album>\$If(<Album Artist>=Soundtrack,,$If(<Album Artist>=Various Artists,,<Album Artist> - ))<Album>$If(<Disc#>, Disc <Disc#>) - <Track#:2> - $If($First(<Artist>)=<Album Artist>,,$First(<Artist>) - )<Title></code>

For lowercase and space-free filenames:

<code>F:\Music\$MovePrefix(<Album Artist>)\<Album>\$Replace($Lower($If(<Album Artist>=Soundtrack,,$If(<Album Artist>=Various Artists,,<Album Artist> - ))<Album>$If(<Disc#>, Disc <Disc#>) - <Track#:2> - $If($First(<Artist>)=<Album Artist>,,$First(<Artist>) - )<Title>), ,_)</code>

== Examples ==

This mask creates a complex file naming system useful for huge collections where including artist and album information in the filename is important. It allows for the following:

*Automattic prefixing of the Artist folder for easier searching in Windows.
**F:\Music\Beatles, The\Abbey Road\The Beatles - Abbey Road - 01 - Come Together.flac
*If an album has a Disc number, the Disc number will be added after the Album title. It is recommended to leave the Disc field empty for single disc albums (otherwise they will all be named disc 1).
**F:\Music\Nine Inch Nails\The Fragile\Nine Inch Nails - The Fragile Disc 1 - 11 - La Mer.flac
*Unique layout for "Soundtrack" and "Various Artists" Album Artist tags that will ignore the Album Artist and put the first Artist after the track number (to remain sorted).
**F:\Music\Various Artists\If I Were a Carpenter\If I Were a Carpenter - 03 - Sonic Youth - Superstar.flac
**F:\Music\Soundtrack\Memento\Memento - 13 - David Julyan - Time For My Shot.flac
*Using the same rule, if the first artist in the Artist field differs from the Album Artist, this mask will also place the first artist after the track number. This is useful in the rare case that an album includes a track that was made by a different artist to the one who released the album.
**F:\Music\Eric Clapton\Complete Clapton\Eric Clapton - Complete Clapton Disc 1 - 02 - Cream - Sunshine of Your Love.flac
*This mask also supports the use of multiple artists in the artist field. Only the first artist that appears in the field will be used if it has to ("Soundtrack" or "Various Artists" album artist tags). For example, the following track is from a Various Artists album, but the track itself features two artists. "Jady Gaga; Colby O'Donis".
**F:\Music\Various Artists\Absolute Dance Autumn 2008\Absolute Dance Autumn 2008 Disc 2 - 02 - Lady Gaga - Just Dance.mp3
*Using the "Lowercase and space-free filenames" version, the filename will be converted to lowercase and all spaces will be replaced with underscores.
**F:\Music\Donovan\The Hurdy Gurdy Man\donovan_-_the_hurdy_gurdy_man_-_01_-_hurdy_gurdy_man.flac
