Can you explain in more detail what is the problem if the discs are combined? A specific example would be helpful.

Hi Simon

thanks for asking. When I rip my CDs I set the tracks in the following format XX. Title, where XX denotes the track number in the individual CD. When I have multiple discs I unfortunately find that the track in the consolidated folder become as follows:

track 01 Disc 1
track 01 Disc 2
...
track 02 Disc 1
track 02 Disc 2

etc.

As you might appreciate it, the order above would simply scramble the normal flow of movements for classical pieces (it would not be too important for most of Jazz/Rock albums as the other generally does not matter - with obvious exceptions).

I think that by keeping the discs separated the problem mentioned above would not arise. However, I was wondering if I could avoid tagging individual discs since there are many instances of the kind above in my library and therefore would not be very practical.

Any suggestions (with a practical example if possible - as I am very new to using Miminserver) would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again!

Giorgio
