Support for DISCNUMBER tag? - tuan2195 - 10-07-2018

Hi, I have a few albums that have multiple disc and I'm not figuring out a way to make them work intuitively with Moode 4.3

For example, I have a 2-disc album. When I was using foobar I would tag the track with the DISCNUMBER tag. So

Track 1, Disc 1: TRACK 1, DISCNUMBER 1

But if I use this scheme with Moode, it seems to disregard the DISCNUMBER field. Therefore the order in Moode is:

Track 1, Disc 1
Track 1, Disc 2
Track 2, Disc 1
...

I have tried setting the TRACK field to 1.01 and 1-01 but it does not help. I have to resort to setting TRACK to 101, 102, 201... but this is not the most elegant solution.

Can support for this tag be added? Thanks!

MPD supports the Disc tag but moOde only uses Genre/Artist/Album/Track tags to generate the Library panel.
https://www.musicpd.org/doc/protocol/tags.html

Below is a multi-disc album from my collection. It was imported using iTunes and none of file names or tags were altered other than setting AlbumArtist tag = Artist. No issues in the Library panel

Thanks for the feedback. What if both discs shares the same album name? That's the usage scenario that I'm having problem with. Thanks!



RE: Support for DISCNUMBER tag? - Tim Curtis - 10-09-2018

In that case if the Track tag is populated like below and the Album name is same for the tracks from disc 1 and 2 then the Library will show a single Album name in the list but the tracks will be sorted as below, by the Track tag.

Track 1, Disc 1
Track 1, Disc 2
Track 2, Disc 1
.
.

The standard is that the Track tag contains only the track number.

I think if you try adding [Disc #] as a suffix in the Album tag and then revert to standard number for Track tag these albums should display correctly in the Library

RE: Support for DISCNUMBER tag? - kit1cat - 10-09-2018

I find putting each disc in a separate folder and the adding the disc number to the album name works for me.


RE: Support for DISCNUMBER tag? - Tim Curtis - 10-09-2018

Right, you would want each disk in a separate file folder as well.


RE: Support for DISCNUMBER tag? - kit1cat - 10-09-2018

Example, Gary Moore - Out in the Fields, 2 cd set.

Main Folder, Gary Moore - Out in the Fields
two sub folders called cd1 and cd2.
album titles, Gary Moore - Out in the Fields (cd1) and Gary Moore - Out in the Fields (cd2)
Shows has two album covers in the library referring to cd1 and cd2


RE: Support for DISCNUMBER tag? - TheOldPresbyope - 10-09-2018

For me, the disc number is not a particularly useful concept. It's  an artifact of the distribution medium chosen by the producer and not an intrinsic characteristic of the music. Sure, one has to get creative with tags and file names, notably with classical music, but I'm not complaining. 

It wasn't so long ago I was having to find and pull a CD case from one of the 4 different cabinets in two different rooms, load up the CD player, adjust amp settings, retreat to the sofa, and hit play on the remote. Now I can sit down and do it all from my client screen. Heaven!

See, that's what I don't like about having a disc number…

When an album consists of 2 (or more) CD's, I erase the disk number completely, and renumber the tracks of the 2nd (and 3rd, and...) disc so that the track numbers follow each other from 1 to the last:

Example:
CD1:   Tracks 1 to 15   -   Disc number = 1
CD2:   Tracks 1 to 12   -   Disc number = 2
==> I change this into:
Album:   Tracks 1 to 27   -   Disc number = ""
This way the Album shows up only once in the library.
And with MP3TAG this is done in seconds…

Everyone to their own, I much prefer to see what is on each disk then a long list of all tracks available, at least we have the choice.
