Are the following iTunes keys available as Templates fields

Post by abraxas »

I would like to adapt the Details/Classical template to display the Disc number and the track number in the disc. In iTunes XML file there are the following information :

<key>Disc Number
<key>Disc Count
<key>Track Number
<key>Track Count

There are keys for these in CDmedia ?

On the track level this is encoded into the position of the track and the key is [track:position] for track number. We do not have currently a disc key for the track, but I have added [track:disc] to the CDpedia beta version. So with the beta you can now do [track:disc].[track:position] in a template to get the info for the disc and the track. This of course has to be in the [tracksBegin] and [tracksEnd] loop.

The totals, "Disc Count" and "Track Count" key are [key:discs] and [key:numberOfTracks]. Here there is a slight difference in that Track Count in iTunes is disc based, while ours is based for the album.
