Dear all,
First Post and desperately in need of help for the small program which can automatically create sub-folders on the basis of album name for music files and move those music files into the specific folder... example

Name of the song Album
abcdef.mp3 sample
weferw.mp3 sample
qwerty.mp3 Test
do not worry.mp3 Test

Now it should create 2 sub folders with the name Sample and Test and move first 2 files in Sample and 2nd 2 files in Test...

Album Names are already present....

Tags 2 Folders is a small utility to sort audio files into folders based on their tags. The following audio file types are suppported:

AAC, APE, FLAC, MP1, MP2, MP3, MP4, MPC, M4A, M4B, OGG, OFR, OFS, TTA, WMA, WV

Simply choose a source folder, a destination folder, set your options and click the "Go" button.

Options

1) Recurse source folder: Scan through the source folder's sub-directories.
2) Show destination folder after run: Launch an Explorer window of the destination folder when done.
3) Template: Use the tokens to come up with your own folder naming scheme.
4) Copy files to destination: Make copies of the original files in the destination folder.
5) Move files to destination: Move the original files into the destination folder.

Other notes

1) You can drag & drop folders onto the source and destination fields.
2) Filename collisions will be automatically renamed like this:

audio_file.mp3
audio_file[1].mp3
audio_file[2].mp3
audio_file[3].mp3
...

BTW, you can use a template like this to create subfolders: $artist\[$year] $album

If you are looking for more features, there is a great program called Media Monkey.
There is a freeware version and a paid version.

Tags2Folders is great simple program too!

Thank u wetsmellydog

Edit: Didn't like MediaMonkey, Well Personal Choice, can't say anything more than this

Media Monkey is a great program & the free version offers almost all of the functionality of the paid version. Well worth checking out, IMHO.

I Thank you once again for the program and would like to reuqest some more features
May I request you the 'Shell Extension' please and can we sort it out on more than one token or only single token is allowed, if yes then please show us how, and if not can you add it please?

Thanking you
Paarkhi

Sure, I can add this.

If I understand you correctly, yes, you can. Let's assume a destination directory of "C:\Music". For instance, if you use a template like this: $artist\[$year] $album
That backslash will let you create a folder structure like:

C: +---Music | +---U2 | | \---[1987] The Joshua Tree

Or, you can use a template like this: $artist - $album
This will create a folder like:

C:\Music\U2 - The Joshua Tree

Does that answer your question?

_{Edit: Fleshed out the examples a bit.}

v1.0.1 - 2009-10-25
+ Added a "Tags 2 Folders" shell extension option to the Extra menu.
Once enabled, you can right-click a folder, select the Tags 2 Folders
option and it will then be loaded as the source directory. (Thanks, paarkhi)

paarkhi · « **Reply #14 on:** October 27, 2009, 12:01 AM »

'Thank you Sir, Works with Artist\Album. Can you fill out the destination directory as source directory because I want to make sub folders in the same folders. Doesn't work when you right click a folder and call Tag2Folder, and can the default action for the files be "Move the Files to the Destination" Instead of "Copy Files to the Destination"

Sorry I forgot to say all these in my previous post...

v1.0.2 - 2009-10-27
* Loading a folder from the shell now populates both the source and
destination fields. (Thanks, paarkhi)
* Made "Move files to destination" the default. (Thanks, paarkhi)
! Source folder added via shell extension didn't work properly.
! Dragging a folder to the destination folder field cleared out
the source folder field. (Thanks, paarkhi)

I used Tag2Folder to organize my messy Audio Books Folder - worked a treat!

Thanks skwire...

skwire · « **Reply #17 on:** October 28, 2009, 07:42 AM »

Great success!

Thanks for the feedback. What sort of template did you use?

CleverCat · « **Reply #18 on:** October 29, 2009, 07:11 AM »

Me? I used just the Album template as it was all I needed!

skwire · « **Reply #19 on:** October 29, 2009, 07:15 AM »

Great. I'm glad it worked as designed. =]

CleverCat · « **Reply #20 on:** October 29, 2009, 07:18 AM »

Will test more (I made a copy of folder first just in case I got it wrong!)

Yep, that's smart thinking. No code is perfect.
