Problem with music database. Help-me!

[Flavio61]

I have a problem with my music database.

I have ripped my audio CD in one HD with this structure:

\\Server
\music
\artistname01
\albumtitle01
\01 titletrack01.wav
\02 titletrack02.wav
\....
\albumtitle02
\01 titletrack01.wav
\02 titletrack02.wav
\......
\artistname02
\albumtitle01
etc.etc.

When I import on XLobby I use this configuration:
Template:music
Extension: mp3,wav,ape,wma
Coverart:jpeg
paths:\\Server\music
Import Type:id3
Views:Album

All works fine but the tracknumber field in music database is blank and the trackname field is "01 titletrack01" instead of "titletrack01".

What is wrong? The folder structure on my HD or the template?

I use the mediaX2 skin.

Thank's for any help.

you are ripping your cd's to wav files?

If so that is why its not importing the track numbers. Xlobby cannot import the track numbers from the file names. Only the track numbers from mp3 (id3) tags or wma tags as far as I know.

First of all thank for your reply.

Yes I rip my CD with EAC in wav formta, but it's no possible to create a template that read the number of track from the name of the file. In my HD the first two letters of the track filename are the tracknumber.

nope that isn't possible with xlobby currently... it only can import track numbers from tags within the file.. not the name.

You may want to put this in the feature requests section. Maybe it will be added.

Could I recommend going with a lossless compression format like flac? I'm not even going to try to sell you on the disk space savings, because it appears you don't care... but:

You can tag your files this way, including more information than generally available through your file-system scheme.
