Here's my £0.02. I rip my single-artist CDs... F:\music\artist\album\track no-track name.filetype ...so F:\music\Wings\Wild Life\01-Mumbo.mp3
...and compilations... F:\music\compilations\album\track no-track name.filetype ...so F:\music\compilations\1998 The Album\01-Here We Go.mp3 As ceejay suggests I leave articles off the folder names, i.e. ignore "a", "the" etc. SilmServer seems happiest with Compilations arranged in the above folder structure. There's a neat way to get a nicely formatted Word doc of your folder structure; seems easier to get Word to match your folders rather than the other way round. In Win XP... 1 click Start > Run > cmd to open a DOS window 2 navigate to your music directory (if you're not familiar with DOS commands then typing Y: switches to another drive [replace Y with letter of choice], cd xxx changes to another directory [replace xxx with directory of choice], and cd\ takes you to root of current drive) 3 type tree /a > x.doc (where x is whatever filename you want to pick) 4 open your music directory, you'll find a file called x.doc (or whatever). Open it and you'll see a text version of your directory structure 5 then I wrote a simple macro to automatically format this to something more pleasing to the eye. I'll try and remember to post back with an example and the macro text when I get home. -- moley6knipe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ moley6knipe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10014 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37955
