I guess that’s not really clear in the interface. are people using this functionality? Genuinely curious. I also hadn’t considered the need to name things accounting for if/then/or situations. It was frustrating because I couldn’t see any of the original mask syntax, so I was flying blind, having forgot all the JavaScript I learned so many years ago. If we need to do this I can help you further. One option you have if you cannot get Edit Mask to work is to manually edit the renamemask.properties file.
#SONGKONG RENAME MASK HOW TO#
The syntax used by SongKong is actually pretty simple and quite obvious when you look at an existing mask, its easy to amend a mask then use one from scratch - How to create Rename masks Using Javascript expressions give the customer the ability to do very complex masks if required, the alternative is to create a pseuso language as Picard and Foobar2000 do but this is very limiting because each function required by a customer has to be specially coded, so there are always limitations. Unfortunately the one you want are missing, I did notice this recently SongKong comes with a predefined set of mask that you can use, you only need to go into Preferences if you want to edit a mask or create a new one. Have you seen how, say, Adobe Lightroom lets you build complex rename masks by tokenizing the variables? Super easy, don’t have to learn JavaScript. Why is this complicated instead of simple? A year ago I committed the gravest error experimenting with these tools, and it has been anger and frustration since.I just want DD-TT-Album-Artist-Title as my filename.Īs it stands, I have to run everything through Yate to get my files named correctly. This tool is a danger, and if in America I'd submit a legal complaint and complaint to the Better Business Bureau, but I'm already beyond hopeless despair on how my music library has been destroyed and I have hundreds to thousands of hours of repeat work in front of me on a music library now filled with mislabeled tracks, duplicate tracks, songs split into solo tracks from albums and every kind of error. He is not interested in identifying problems with his application that do real and serious damage to music lovers, and will only provide minimal grudging assistance. The writer Paul Taylor had some role with Picard, but now is I think in a remote part of England, desperate for money with a bad attitude. Don't even think of using this tool unless you're starting place is having no IDs for most of your music, and you have every aspect of your music library backed-up as you will likely need to use it. It misidentifies songs it creates errors in iTunes it creates duplicates it creates orphaned files in iTunes. It, along with other tools, managed to absolutely decimate my music library I worked over 10 years to put together and rate 1-5 stars. A year ago I committed the gravest error experimenting with these tools, and it has been anger and frustration since.
