My current work around for this is to only insert these two tags the WAV file

Thanks for the suggestion, but it won't work for me. The problem is described over at
https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,125170.0.html

I'm attempting to use the solution you proposed in that thread!  -  foobar's file operations. It fails because foodbar doesn't read DISCNUMBER from the cue file.

<full path and filename of wav/flac>|DISCNUMBER|TOTALDISCS

Are you suggesting that I can tag the .wav file with the discnumber?

$directory = "D:\TestMusic"
$outputFile = "D:\TestMusic\File.txt"

Get-ChildItem -Path $directory -Filter "*.cue" -Recurse | ForEach-Object {
    $cueFile = $_.FullName
    $wavFile = (Get-Item $_.FullName ).DirectoryName+"\"+(Get-Item $_.FullName ).BaseName+".wav"

    Get-Content -Path $cueFile | Where-Object { $_ -match "REM DISCNUMBER" } | ForEach-Object {
        $discNumber = $_
    }
    Get-Content -Path $cueFile | Where-Object { $_ -match "REM TOTALDISCS" } | ForEach-Object {
        $totalDiscs = $_
    }
        $output = "$wavFile|$discNumber|$totalDiscs"
        $output | Out-File -FilePath $outputFile -Append
}

D:\TestMusic\01.wav|REM DISCNUMBER 01|REM TOTALDISCS 02
D:\TestMusic\a1\02.wav|REM DISCNUMBER 03|REM TOTALDISCS 03
D:\TestMusic\a1\dd\03.wav|REM DISCNUMBER 01|REM TOTALDISCS 01

And then how do I use foobar’s file operations or are you suggesting I script the moves?

I'm attempting to use the solution you proposed in that thread!  -  foobar's file operations. It fails because foodbar doesn't read DISCNUMBER from the cue file.

Given this thread is about DISCNUMBER from CUE sheets and I think we've addressed that, it might be worth continuing back on your original thread.

$if($or($strstr(%path%,'\CD'),
$greater(%discnumber%,1),
$and(%discnumber%,%tracknumber%)),
$substr($directory(%path%),3,$strrchr(%path%,'\')))-,)
[$num(%tracknumber%,2)]

These tags exists for a reason, one shouldn't be forced to bend over backwards trying to get the same information because some filetype doesn't support the use natively.

Which tags exactly? The problem is that you don't have any, just some arbitrary text in a CUE sheet. If you can point to a specification that includes them then I'm sure they're more likely to get added (still very unlikely though as the world moved on a long time ago).

Should work now in foobar2000 v2.1.1.

• disc number and total discs are set correctly in the flac file and appear in the properties if I right click on a specific file.  However they don't appear in the view of all of the tracks. I can't see a way to add them. See Multi-disc.jpg
• The track level COMPOSER in a cue file is ignored. Composer is not set in the properties
• The track level PERFORMER is not ignored. It's used to set track level artist, but Performer is not set in the properties. (see Sam and Dave and the cue file I used to create the flacs...
