Hi,
In the past I have ripped my favorite CD's to mp3 at a relaxed pace. Now, I am beginning to rip my entire collection with the goal of clearing out the physical space required to store the CD's, and it is going to take quite a while to make it happen.
The ripping process is going well, and I appreciate FOOBAR 2000's functionality.
There is one thing that could save me some time. I prefer to have my tracks listed with a formatting such as "01, 02, 03... 13", but when FOOBAR uses one of the tagging databases to auto populate the tag fields I end up with a formatting such as "1/13, 2/13, 3/13... 13/13".
I have been revising the number sequence by hand, and that's OK, but if it is possible to get the results I am hoping for automatically then it could save me a little time and fully optimize my conversion process.
Is this possible?
Thank you!
Select tracks, right click->Properties->"Tools" button->Auto track number. Assuming that tracks have correct %album% tag, you can do this for multiple albums in one go.
Thank you.
I followed your advice, and when I went to make the changes the listing was already formatted as I have been hoping it would appear.
I should have mentioned that I rip in Foobar2000, then check and edit the Tags with MP3Tag, I did not see the files in a FOOBAR playlist until after working in MP3Tag and then opening the files for playback testing in FOOBAR2000.
In MP3Tag the track number appears in the n/total tracks format, so I had been editing them to appear as integers, but now I realize that I did not have too because FOOBAR displays them as I wish.
Now, I realize I should have asked this question with regards to MP3Tag rather than FOOBAR2000.
Thank you!
