long naming matter

Dear All,

I'm a complete noob here and i'm facing a naming matter when ripping Cd's to Flac files. In fact I'm able to get endless long names for files when using this built-in pattern :

    %album artist% /%album%/[%album artist% - ]%album% - %title%

But i want to add the track number  to read the files in the same order they are on the CD and use this pattern :

     %album artist%/%album%/%tracknumber%. %title%

With this second pattern i unavoidably get a Code 1 error for the longuest title tracks and a stop in the conversion despite the fact the files names are shorter than the ones i get with the first pattern.

Of course, i think i miss something and any input there would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

kind regards

I have under Name format:
Code: [Select]
%artist%\%album%\%tracknumber% - %title%
with backslash, to create the folder tree.
The result is:
Code: [Select]
G:\mp3\Bach\Bach - Milstein\Bach- The Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin - Disc 1\01 - Sonata No. 1 in G Minor - Adagio.flac

Maybe there is also a path limit.
EDIT: Path limit is 255 characters.

Curious, I seem to have been wrong my entire life. I was always under the belief that the MAX_PATH limit wasn't a factor when using relative paths. With your example scenario individual path components are not too long yet file creation fails.

You can limit the output length of any tag, e.g. limit title to 50 characters: $left(%title%,50)

than you for all your replies. What surprises me is that in the first version it seems to have virtually no limit and a very sensitive one in the second. And i can't explain the reason...

Happy new year !

with : %album artist% /%album%/[%album artist% - ]%album% - %title%

i get this filename :

"Richard Strauss, Berliner Philharmoniker, Herbert von Karajan, Michel Schwalbé - Also sprach Zarathustra - Till Eulenspiegels lustige Streiche - Salomes Tanz - Till Eulenspiegels lustige Streiche, op. 28- nach alter Schelmenweise - in Rondeauform.flac"

PS : same destination folder in both cases

with : %album artist% /%album%/[%album% - ]%tracknumber% - %title%

i get this error :

1 out of 1 files converted with major problems.

It would seem that the "tracknumber" command applies the 255 characters limit that is not considered at all in the first case. Why and a how to get rid of that ?

At least on Windows 10 you could enable long file names like described here. Otherwise you need to adjust the pattern like this: $cut(%album artist% /%album%/[%album% - ]%tracknumber% - %title%,220). If the path to the destination folder is longer than in your example, you need to decrease the cutting point according to it.

There's an advanced option "Convert to temporary location, move to destination folder when finished". You can try it, maybe it will help.
