If your directories contain Artist, Album, or Genre data, PRSmusJuke will parse the directory structure to capture this information.
If the default method does not return proper results, you can set up a custom mask to parse your directories and capture this data.
You can optionally override metadata from mp3 or flac files with this data.
Mask values:
a = Album
b = Band (Artist)
g = Genre
t = Track
x = Not Used
Separator values:
s = Space
- = Dash
Any non alphanumeric special character
Tap the Test button to see the results of your mask.
Mask Examples:
Rock\Pink Floyd\Dark Side of the Moon\Us and Them - Pink Floyd.wav
g b a ts-sb
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon\Us and Them - Pink Floyd.wav
x x bs-sa ts-sb
Rock\Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon\Us and Them - Pink Floyd.wav
g bs-sa ts-sb
Pink Floyd\Dark Side of the Moon\Us and Them - Pink Floyd.wav
x b a ts-sb
.
If some of your track names have the artist name at the end, using a mask of \'ts-sb\'
will return the track name without the artist name.\n
If a mask field is duplicated (like the \'b\') \'x b a ts-sb\' the left most mask result will be used.
If you want to use the mask result to the right replace the left mask with an \'x\' as in
\'x x a ts-sb\'
