Need help combining auto-organize rules

Post by steviegt »

I have 5 auto-organize scenarios. Is there a way, and if so, can anyone help create 1 rule that will work for all scenarios?

1. C:\Users\Steve\Music\<Album>\<Artist> - <Album>$If(<Disc#>, - Disc <Disc#:2>) - <Track#:2> - <Title>
2. C:\Users\Steve\Music\<Album>\<Artist> - <Album>$If(<Disc#>, - Side <Disc#:2>) - <Track#:2> - <Title>
3. C:\Users\Steve\Music\Music Singles\<Artist> - <Album>$If(<Disc#>, - Disc <Disc#:2>) - <Track#:2> - <Title>
4. C:\Users\Steve\Music\Music Singles\<Artist> - <Album>$If(<Disc#>, - Side <Disc#:2>) - <Track#:2> - <Title>
5. C:\Users\Steve\Music\Music Singles\<Artist> - <Album> - 45 RPM - Side <Track#:2> - <Title>

If not, other than the dropdown for "Destination" on the Auto-Organize Files page, is there a way to select 1 of the 4 presets without having to go to Options>Library>Auto-Organize and copying/paste the path from each individual preset I created?

It's impossible to tell as you didn't indicate how to differentiate between the file rules. As you already saw you can use if statements, but you need to be able to differentiate files on their tags.

You'll need to copy/paste to share masks between Auto-Organize and Auto-Organize Files.

Make multiple auto-organize masks available everywhere

If multiple auto-organize masks are created in Option>Library>Auto-organize, allow to select one as the default that is selectable not only in this location but also is selectable in Tools>Auto-organize files to be used on the Destination line or selectable thru Configure. If you go thru all the trouble to create the masks, why aren't they "all" available for use in all areas where Auto-organize is available for use.

Already requested, problem for now is that Auto-Organize uses DB and Auto-Organize Files uses ini: http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=4668
