Suggestions to improve Converting Files Process
« on: October 29, 2006, 10:25:44 am »

I have two small, but handy feature requests for the Converting Files process in Library Tools.

1)  When converting files, and selecting the checkbox to create artist & album subdirectories, it would be nice for the process to also correctly handle converting compilation albums. Right now it incorrectly creates a separate artist subdirectory for each artist in the compilation album.  I can just not check the box to create a subdirectory for a given compilation album, and then create the subdirectories afterwards by hand, but then I have to convert such albums one at a time in order to keep them separate, instead of including them in a batch process.

2) During file conversion, show a total count of files to be converted, and files converted thus far, consistent with the process to Analyze Audio.

Thanks much.

1) The full "Rename Files From Properties" option window should be available in here and also everywhere in similar places. Also, this full "Rename File From Properties" window should have the requested additional options:

I've noticed the compilation album problem too.
My synced MP3 library split my Compilations up into lots of little albums....
