2 small MC11 features
« on: November 22, 2004, 08:56:19 am »

Hi,

Could we have an option to save album art in the album folder as folder.jpg.

And, could we have an option to fill in the Album Artist tag from Album Artist(Auto). (Auto) works well but I would really like the tag actually filled in so I have something tangiable in the files.

Pleeese?

Thanks

Vic

Sorry, just one other little thing.

Can I have my compilations/soundtracks save in Various Artists and Display as Various Artists in Pains?

At the moment the folder is Assorted and the Pains are Multiple Artists. 99% of compilations/soundtracks say Various Artists on the box.

Cheers

Vic

For cover art naming I would like to see a rule based system. I would use this: "[Artist]/[Album]/[Artist] - [Album] - Front". The "Front" is there because I usually have other album images too: "Back", "CD", "Booklet", etc.

I am not going to have over 2000 identically named "folder.jpg" files on my HD and in my Media Library.

However, with a rule based system you could use for example this: "[Artist]/[Album]/folder" and get what you want.

P.S.

Hmm... The correct word is "panes".  :)

pain =

1. An unpleasant sensation occurring in varying degrees of severity as a consequence of injury, disease, or emotional disorder.
2. Suffering or distress.
3. pains - The pangs of childbirth.
4. pains - Great care or effort: take pains with one's work.
Informal: A source of annoyance; a nuisance.

pane =

1. a. A framed section of a window or door that is usually filled with a sheet of glass or other transparent material.
    b. The transparent material used to fill such a section.
2. A panel, as of a door or wall.
3. One of the flat surfaces or facets of an object, such as a bolt, having many sides.

... and don't take this too seriously. I have no intend to upset you or anybody. I am from Finland and English is actually my third language. I seem to make more or less silly mistakes all the time.  ;)

I was obviously feeling PAIN from this problem while typing. It's a one off mistake. I can spell - honest!

I agree, I would very much like to see both Vic & Alex's ideas implemented.
