Hi All,

I have a pretty large music collection on my htpc,
The thing is, i can't get it organized the way i want it.

What i'm trying to accomplish is that while songs that are singles are set in a specific folder should be displayed with
%Artist% - %title% format,
the albums folder should be organized as %Title%, since it is already stored in the Artist folder...

I can't get it to work together, either everything is displayed as %artist% - Title, or vice-versa.
Any why to differentiate between the folders?

    Did you ever check the DB views? You would need to have the id3 tags correctly setup for your mp3 and then scan them once. From then on you can look at your music just as you like - by artist, album, genre, whatever order you define in your music views.
