Is there a way to rename the metadata? Specifically, I’d like to append the track number to the the title in the Title field. I see how to do that with the filename, but not the metadata.
My car sorts by the Title field, so songs in an album are sorted alphabetically. I’d like to get the original song order back by adding the track number.
Rename Title
That is not a very clever car system !
But you can use the Edit Songs Metadata task to manually edit the metadata and add trackno to title. There is not a way to automatically do this since it would not usually make any sense to do this.
If you have lots of songs that you need to do this for then you could use Jaikoz instead:
- drag the trackno column so it is to the right of the title column
- select all fields in the two columns
- run Edit:Prepend to Left to add the track no infront of the title for each row
