I’m not sure how Picard handles that kind of numbering. I assume it ignores it and just numbers everything sequentially. It could make for a tagging mess if it doesn’t know how to handle it. I list all the actual chapters, as I’m thinking of someone ripping the DVD, and then wanting to use Picard to tag the chapters. What does Picard do with “1.-“ as a track number? I consider the actual chapters as gospel and number them consecutively, packaging is often wrong about numbers of tracks, etc. anyway and the reality of what is on the medium is what I try to represent. Yes, with no eti, all the duplicated track names make for a mess, that is why I use it. The CD should be different recordings as you have done since it is audio only and not a video. You need to change all the video recordings on that release to videos. It is a shame there is no way to do that on initial track list entry. You have to go back and edit each recording separately. -- Steve Martin
