Hello.
Did this one ever get fixed?
viewtopic.php?t=92567&sid=16336e240a0eb ... 72b231a099
I am busily digitising old vinyl LPs into MMW. Then "auto-tagging from web". This typically results, within MMW, in track numbers (for a double album) in the format A1, A2 . . . B1, B2 . . C1, C2 . . .D1, etc. Where A, B, C and D are the 'sides' of the two records. And 1, 2, 3 are the tracks on each side.
When I synch with MMA, this subtlety is completely lost and I end up with 4 lots of 'track 1', 4 of 'track 2' and so on (one from each side - A, B, C, D). This is a nuisance, as each LP will then *not* play the tracks in the right order, when played back in MMA.
Of course, I *can* go into each album in MMW and manually change this, so that the track numbering just goes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 . . .N. But . . .a, that's a pain in the neck, and b. it seems a shame to lose valid information about which 'side' of the vinyl album is associated.
All thoughts and clues welcomed.
The versions I am using are MMW - 4.1.31.1919 and MMA - 1.4.2.0945
Cheers
