Use Track Browser to view individual Discs in one Album

Post by Dybro »

Hi :)
My MediaMonkey-screen looks like this: http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/6831/screenynm.jpg

I would like it to show the different Discs of the Album in the Track Browser, so that were it says "All Items (1), Tabu Records 10 Års Jubilæum" it would say something like "All Items (2), Tabu Records 10 Års Jubilæum Disc 1, Tabu Records 10 Års Jubilæum Disc 2". (The commas are defining new lines :))

Is there any plug in for that, or something like that?

You have to change the Album tag for each song to reflect the name with the disc number - so you need two new album names:
Tabu Records 10 Års Jubilæum Disc 1
Tabu Records 10 Års Jubilæum Disc 2

If it's just this one album, then change it manually. If it's lots of albums, you can use the RegExp script.

Yeah, i've done so until yesterday, but i thought it was better to use the "disc" tag, because i have a lot of compilations like Motown 50's, All 90s and so on, and there are like 3 discs on them, and then i'll get a hell lot of albums in the list, so i just hoped that it was possible to sort it in the trackbrowser after Disc number...

It is better to use the disc tag, but for you want the other method is the only solution currently.

The other option might be to use MagicNodes and create a node that includes the disc # - here's an example mask to use with MagicNodes http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... =2&t=19168:

Code: Select all

Album Artist / Album / Disc\<Album artist|Statistic:Count(Album), Count(Tracks)>\<Album|Statistic:Count(Disc number), Count(Tracks)>\<Disc number|Statistic:Count(Tracks)>
