How to export selected albums to HD with folder structure ?
« on: April 17, 2017, 07:37:07 am »

Hello,
I am using mediacenter for a long time (since version 11) but I never find how to export selected albums directly from the interface.
I want to select some albums and being able to export them (folders, files...) to an external hard drive.
"send to" command do not answer to this because we can't select a HD (or I haven't found how to).
Do I need to use "convert to..." command ? is there anything easier ?

Is there anybody having a solution for this ?

Thanks a lot

You could copy the files in Media Center (Ctrl+C) then paste them into your external file browser.

 :)  thank you Matt,
When I do that, I only have the files in the destination. but it's a nice solution, thank you.

 I find something good since my message :

I use the copy file command from managing library and it works fine.

Sorry for that, I didn't know why I haven't think about that before.
and sorry for my poor english from France  ;-)

The Rename, Move, and Copy files tool is one solution.  Highlight some files, right click, and select Library Tools > Rename Move & Copy Files .

Be sure to use COPY mode!  Don't use RENAME for this. Rename is the default, so be sure to set COPY mode.   In this tool you can specify where to put the files and the kind of folder structure to create, using a RULE.  Something like [Artist]\[Album] for example.

Depending on your needs, this tool might do it, or you might want something a little different.

Good luck!

Brian.
