help with EAC

no matter what options i put in the "construct filename",
when the files are created all i get is the 'song name.mp3'
with no track number. this is a bit frustrating which means
i have to edit all the file names manually to include the
track number. perhaps someone can tell me what i'm doing
wrong? tnx.

are you using an external encoder like LAME?

if so, these instructions should help

thanx, i never realised the LAME encoder parameter passing
preset caused problems with EAC's tagging routines. no
wonder i couldn't get it to work, i only recently set it up
again.

i think it must be because the track number for the filename
is read from the ID1.1 tags and sometimes for whatever
reason it doesnt write the number into the 1.1 field but it
does in the 1.2.

why why why? :(

use this if EAC's being a bitch. i have no
experience with it, but it's supposed to be able to rename
collections of mp3's.

understand

i mean i'd prefer to stick to EAC and work out what's going
wrong

no offence taken.

however, if it doesn't work out (for example, in the case
where it's just a feature of EAC and not the product of a
schoolboy mistake), the program i linked you to was
recommended by the people @ the hydrogenaudio/forums
(=authority when it comes to encoding soundfiles).
