I have two questions about foobar.

I've been using dbPowerAmp Reference to rip my collection in FLAC, but I wouldn't mind using foobar's built in ripper. Is there any way to rip to a location automatically depending on the ID3 tag information? Basically, I'd like all of my FLAC files to go in "D:\Media\Music\Artist\Album\Disc - Tracknumber (padded to 01) - Title", but I have to manually select the directory for every CD. I know I could use masstagger to move all of the files, but that's an extra step that's already taken care of by other rippers.

Right now, I'm using foo_ui_columns and foo_uie_single_column_playlist because Columns UI is easier to setup than Panels. I have playlist tabs above the single column playlist set to automatically hide with one playlist. Sometimes, when I create a new one and close it, the rest of my playlists will have a white screen with the word "MIEN". The bug is hard to reproduce, so I can't grab a screenshot at the moment. I'd like to know if this is just a problem with foo_ui_columns, or something else.

Thanks in advance!

If you put a backslash in your converter string, it creates a directory structure, this is my converter string:

the resulting directory structure will be:

You still have to select the base directory, but as foobar remembers the last used directory, that shouldn't be a problem.

Nice, thank you!

Edit: Just one more question, is it possible to exclude the disc number if the tag reads "1/1"? I've been looking through the wiki to see if it could be done with if statements or meta tests.

Edit: I guess this is good enough. If anyone's curious, here's my code:



It checks for a multi-disc album and formats the filename as "Artist\Album\1 - 01 - Title". If the total disc tag is equal to "1", it will only use the track and title.
