Question About Auto-Organizing Collections...

Post by Son of Spam »

Currently, I have my music collection assorted alphabetically by Artist Name (under most exceptions).

I'd like to Auto-Organize by Genre >> Artist Name.

What's the easiest way of doing this?

No, what I mean is:

In the Auto-Organize window, how would I configure the path?

Taking a clue from what you're saying, since I have all my music folders in my external HD under drive K:, would I organizing as thus?:

K:\My Music\<Genre>\<Artist> - <Title>

it depends on if you want them on the same drive.

remember anything between the slash marks is going to be a folder by that word or tag.

the last word or tag will be the file name. in your case the last two tags will be the file name.


i use it like this

C:\My music\<artist>\<album>\<genere>\<title>

i change the drive letter to the other drives if i need to but the path stays the same just on different drives.

Yes, that would work. Still not exactly sure what you're going after, though.
