Title: Splitting Flac and Mp3 folders
Post by: coleberhorst on May 29, 2016, 10:16:39 AM
Ok here's the ideal workflow I would like:

New files go to the inbox
I tag them and add them to library
If flac, they get sent to a flac folder (and maybe even auto-converted)
if mp3 they get sent to a mp3 folder
Some way to view both either through filters (currently using) or separate libraries

Is this possible? and if not does anyone have a suggestions for something better?
I think something with file naming presets might work for the folder moving, but I can't seem to find a workable solution.

Say you're using the following naming template:

<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Disc-Track#> <Title>

You would only need to add a parent folder to them:

$If(<.Ext>="flac",FLAC,MP3)\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Disc-Track#> <Title>
