Hello..

Yes this is another XLD question. But since it is different then the other one I started a new thread.

Question: Is there a way to have XLD do the following,

Rip to a specified location using the following: Artist - Album - (Track Number) Track title

I tried using some of my commands from the EAC side and they didn't work. IE %D\%C\(%N) %T

Can it do this?

Thanks

Sure you open the Preferences then Set your default directory location then I use this "%a/%T/%a-%T-%n-%t" without quotes in the Format of filename to get the files in the directory structure that I want named like I like them.

Crap.. I am going to guess the "/" makes the difference? I had it going "\". I thought it would but for the life of me I didn't think about changing the "/".

Thanks!

There wouldn't be a spot for tagging would there?

Yes that is the directory separator in a Unix system I only tried it because that is how a couple of programs I used to use in Linux did it that way and sure enough it worked there too, the backlash is a windows separator of course.

Your welcome, no unfortunately although it seems to get most all of them right when I check them with Tag not sure where it gets this from.
