Title: Custom sync path?
Post by: jmx on April 07, 2007, 12:43:06 pm

I have a portable that doesn't seem to support more than 32 directories, so I'd like to setup MC to sync files to a flat grouped directory structure.

e.g.  Instead of a separate folder for each artist, I'd like separate folders for A, B, C, D, etc.
Or I'd like separate folders for ranges, like AE, FM, NS, TZ.


Can MC12 do this?

Thanks!

I couldn't figure out how to do ranges (yet), but if I set AudioPath to this:
      ROOT\Music\Mid([Artist])\
then I get a (theoretical) max of 36 dirs, so that's pretty close to what I need.

Here's a link to the expressions page. I'll need it again for sure.
