Lame Tag problem

Hi:)
It 's my first post so I take this opportunity to greet you all !
I decided to turn my entire CD collection into MP3 (and Flat) , I read a lot on the web and in the end I downloaded EAC and latest LAME.
I want the quality of extraction is the highest so I put it as a string "- B320 % source %% dest %" and MP3s feel very good ( tell me if there is a better setting ? )

The problem I have is that the tags are all written correctly except for the track number, for example, if the song is the seventh in a CD with 10
songs, in the Tag I see 07/10 but I want to see only the number 07.
Another problem is that, in the tag, I see the number of the Disc (1/1) but I don't want see it.

At the end, I want ony see
artist , album , title , year and number song ( without side the total number of the tracks)

Thanks and sorry for the English , I used Google translate because my English is very bad , I hope you can answer me in a simple way

We have a wiki which is sure to help you with most questions you might have. Just bear in mind the important note:

Code: [Select]
This guide is in need of an update, because in EAC 1.0 beta 2, the replacement strings changed. For example:
"%s" is now "%source%"
"%d" is now "%dest%"
"%a" is now "%artist%"


As for avoiding having the album track total, changing --tn "%tracknr%/%numtracks%" to  --tn "%tracknr2%" will suffice. The numeral (2) makes sure the track will have two digits at least, so for anything below 10 you'll still end up with track numbers like "01, 02 etc."

PS: The lossless encoder is named FLAC, not FLAT.
Listen to the music, not the media it's on.

thanks for the help but I have not figured out where I put the string. I have used -b320 %source% %dest% --tn "%tracknr2%" but nothing is changed

Do you have the "Add ID3 tag" checkbox checked? If so, then EAC will write the tagging and it doesn't really matter what you pass to LAME.

yes, I have it checked, if I disable it, the mp3 created haven't the tag.
Please someone tell me what string should I use to have the highest quality and without the fields that I wrote in the first post
Thanks

If you uncheck "Add ID3 tag" then you have to explicitly spell out which tagging options to pass to LAME within the compression option labeled "Additional command-line options". The wiki article linked to in the second post is a pretty good reference, but you have to read it carefully.

You could use the following if you want CBR 320 and only ID3v2 tags:

-b 320 --id3v2-only --pad-id3v2 --ta "%artist%" --tt "%title%" --tl "%albumtitle%" --ty "%year%" --tn "%tracknr2%" --tg "%genre%" %source%

IMO, it's seldom necessary to pad track numbers within the tracknumber tag. This is generally only needed in file names, to help the files sort correctly. I would use %tracknr% instead.
