Need help with an auto organize mask please

Post by midfielder »

Hi all,

Can someone hep me please put together this rule...

All music z:\<Grouping>\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Disc-Track#> <Title>
except for Various Artists z:\<Grouping>\_Compilations\<Custom 1><Album>\<Disc-Track#> <Title>

I don't see a way to handle the VA albums in the auto organize section.

Thanks in advance,
John

You use an $if statement to do this. Something like $if(<Album Artist>=Various Artist, _Compilations,<Album Artist>)

Thanks!

Does this look correct? (I made a couple of updates)

$if(<Album Artist>=Various Artist, <Grouping>\_Compilations\<Custom 1>\<Album>\<Disc-Track#:2> - <Artist> - <Title>),<Grouping>\<Album Artist>\<Year> - <Album>\<Track#:2> - <Title>

Use it with manual Organize Files as it will show you the results. You can then fine tune before using the Mask.
