Directory structure not respected

[redradoa]

Hello
I have a folder structure following this logic:
–Audio files
--------------Classical
--------------------------Beethoven
----------------------------------------5th symphony
--------------------------Vivaldi
-----------------------------------4 Seasons
--------------Rock
---------------------Beatles
-------------------------------Yellow submarine
---------------------Supertramp
-------------------------------------Crime of the Century
-------------------------------------Breakfast in America

I have run songkong and, for the albums found, this is what I see
–Audio files
5th symphony
4 Seasons
Crime of the Century
--------------Classical
--------------------------Beethoven
----------------------------------------
--------------------------Vivaldi
-----------------------------------
--------------Rock
---------------------Beatles
-------------------------------Yellow submarine
---------------------Supertramp
-------------------------------------
-------------------------------------Breakfast in America

Where the recognised albums have been moved to the main directory (Audio) and the not recognised ones are kept in their original place.

My question is:
Is there any way to run the program in such a way that the recognised albums are kept in their original location? that would be helpful to me since I have a rather complex tree structure in place.
Your input will be welcomed
Thanks for this great product

Hi, by default no files are moved or renamed, I think this is only happening because you have changed the preferences to rename according to the rename mask set on the filenaming tab. But please look at this topic where the customer had the same problem - Don't want folders :/

Thank you very much for your advice and for coming back this quick.
I will follow your advice
In the meantime I am reverting the changes and I see that it is taking a very long time. 7K songs in 12h. Is this a normal rate? or there must be something wrong going on?
I have a mac pro 2019 with a lot of memory and CPU capacity . Memory is not being used strongly and CPU is in the range of 60% all the time.
I have made a quick calculation and, at this rate, it will take 12 days to complete all the process. Can you advice anything?
Thanks
Albert

Very slow yes, where do the files reside ?

[redradoa]

Hi
In an external hdd with lightning connection(400MB/s)
Any ideas?

CPU usage
I have rebooted the computer but still getting this slow rate.1800 songs in 2h

I dont know, however are you just undoing because of the directory structure,. may make more sense to just run SongKong again but set the rename mask to have the folder structure that you want

[redradoa]

Yes, you are absolutely right. I will follow your advice.
Thanks again
