Directory structure question
« on: March 25, 2009, 05:03:13 am »

I have a large music and audio book collection.
I need to setup diffrent filename and directory structure keyed to the genre of the file.

ie if that audio file has a genre of "Audio Book" then do x with it.

I can't seem to find a way to do this.. any help would be appreciated.

Right click on any file and choose Library Tools/Rename, Move and Copy.  This tool can move your files according to rules if the Directory box is checked.

Try a few before you do very many.

Having located the tool Jim mentions, you would need to use database expressions in the directory field...

if(isequal([genre],Audio Book,1),enter audio book path here,enter music path here)
