Title: Consolidated "by Folders Structure" view under Computer node?
Post by: AndreaT on February 01, 2022, 12:27:52 PM

Hello,
I am an old Foobar2000 user addicted to its Album List view "by Folder Structure".

I see that MusicBee by default is quite there.
Under the Computer node, setting "Show filtered folders only" + "Includes files from sub-folders", I can have almost what I would like to get as final result.

What I am getting now is "https://imgur.com/2xh1dJ6 (https://imgur.com/2xh1dJ6)", while I would like to have a consolidated view where all the root entries are merged together, so, in other words, I would like to see all directly under the Computer note and having folders with the same names from different HDDs shown as a single filesystem entity.
If I am not clear enough I can provide a screenshot from Foobar to better explain the matter.

Kind regards, Andrea

You can get something like what you describe using the column browser and a virtual tag based on folder names. I don't have it at my fingertips, but I'm pretty sure there was a guide around on creating a virtual tag with folder names.
