NTFS junctions go crazy

CyberAL · 07-25-2004, 09:54 AM

hi
I just uploaded an album that (apparently) missed the year and genre information (in .nfo?), and the NTFS junction link creating went nuts.

instead of creating
/MP3_INDEX/ARTIST/<first letter>/<current artist>/<current album link>/

it created the link directly on the /MP3_INDEX/ARTIST/

folder.. , and also it put the album as a link directly in the root of

/MP3_INDEX/YEAR/ and /MP3_INDEX/GENRE/

instead of making subfolders..

ofcourse.. if the info doesn't exist.. the script can't sort it.. but then it should jump the procedure instead of trying to do it and to it wrong...

the album .NFO

Code:

my info:

AUDIO_GENRE_PATH=D:\Dump\MP3\MP3_INDEX\GENRE\
AUDIO_ARTIST_PATH=D:\Dump\MP3\MP3_INDEX\ARTIST\
AUDIO_YEAR_PATH=D:\Dump\MP3\MP3_INDEX\YEAR\
USE_LINK_STYLE=2

DATED_DIR=D:\Dump\MP3\MP3_ARCHIVE\|/MP3/MP3_ARCHIVE|D:\Dump\MP3\MP3_TODAY

It does not get the Genre, year, etc info from the .nfo file, it gets it from the mp3 file itself (reads the ID3 tag). However, yes you are correct, if It does not have the tag info, then it should not bother linking (in fact as I was checking the code, I noticed I have a TODO note in there to fix that)...

it seems that VA- albums is sorted by the artist of the last track... could this be handled differently?
