Music

The most common organization scheme for music is separation by artist and then album.

/Music
/Artist
/Album
01 - Song.mp3
02 - Song.mp3

You can also separate your music into artist folders or with no folder structure at all.

/Music
/Artist
01 - Song.flac
02 - Song.flac
08 - Song.ogg
09 - Song.ogg

Individual songs have no required parameters for filenames since the information will be scraped from metadata.

Discs

Albums with several discs will be fine with the metadata tags, but you can also use subfolders for the discs. The number can be appended after a space, hyphen, or directly after one of the following keywords.

  • Disc
  • Disk
  • CD
  • Vol
  • Volume
/Music
/Artist
/Album
/Disc 1
01 - Song.mp3
02 - Song.mp3
/Disc 2
01 - Song.mp3
02 - Song.mp3
