I've been using foobar2000 for many years know, recently discovered musicbee. So I tried to turn my foobar2000 config into musicbee.

From this:


To this:


So there are 2 major problems. I can't replicate the following rules to musicbee At foobar2000 I got these 2 mayor rules:

Rule N°1

[$ifgreater(%totaldiscs%,1,%discnumber%.%tracknumber%,%tracknumber%)]

If the number of total discs IS greater than 1, then the display will be DISCNUMBER.TRACKNUMBER otherwise only TRACKNUMBER I've been playing with: $If(TPOS>1,TPOS.TRCK,TPOS) $If(<Número de disco>>1,<Número de disco>.<Número de pista>,<Número de pista>) None of them works

Rule N°2

['('%date%')' ][%album%][ '('%albumtype%')']

This is the title that every album has

albumtype is just an tag that I created for albums (Single, EP and LP)

And last but not least



Is it possible to have to two tags (DATE and ALBUM) like that? or maybe just: (DATE) ALBUM in a single column

Hope that someone can guide me =)

For #1 -
Edit->Edit Preferences->Tags(2)...fields...Configure Fields

This opens the Fields Layout Editor

At the bottom in disc-track# format, change the "-" between the fields to "."

Then use <Disc-Track#> in your templates.  This will do what you want automatically without creating a virtual tag for it

For #2  and #3:

after an endless fight, I finally did it! =)



($Date(<Año>,yyyy-MM-dd)) <Álbum> $IsNull(<Tipo de Album>,,"("<Tipo de Album>")")


where "Tipo de Album" = TXX/ALBUMTYPE


thanks for the help!
now I'm looking to have the cover art of each album for every group of ($Date(<Año>,yyyy-MM-dd)) <Álbum> $IsNull(<Tipo de Album>,,"("<Tipo de Album>")")
