AMIP Community _ General Discussion _ Display song info format?

Posted by: Wolfbane Sep 2 2014, 11:27 AM

Im using "FooBar 1.3.3" and sometimes when it writes to a txt files it adds track number or some other stuff I dont want in the display info.

The default settings for "AMIP '%s' format:" is the follwoing.

$num(%_playlist_number%,3). [%artist% - ]$if(%title%,['['%album%[ #[%disc%/]$num(%tracknumber%,2)]'] ']%title%,%_filename_ext%)

I tried to edit it to only display "Artist name" and "Track title" but when I did edit it I instead made everything disspear.

So anyone who can help me out on how it should look ?

Also is there any newer version of the program ?
Saz the latest version is from 2010. (version for FooBar I have is v1.01)
I do not have any problems/errors witht he program, but still nice to know.

I presume you only want to show (Track) Artist and (Track) Title?

A very simple would just change it to %artist% - %title%
That wouldnt look right if your file happens to not have ID/Tags, so this should work better: [%artist% - ]%title

The reason why it might have gone blank is because you can have missed an %, or missed making sure that the [ are closed with an ]. Enclosing an anything with [ ] means that if there is a tag that is missing (like no artist is available in the file), nothing within will show.
