#176 Music is organized by folder structure

[CalmSoftware]

My primary media source is from iTunes, so you know the folder structure (F01, F02, F03, and so forth). When imported into Subsonic, it organizes by that folder structure. Genuinely, Subsonic is no different than Windows Explorer at that level. Subsonic should ignore folder structure, and organize like any other media player/server (take iTunes or Sockso for example).

Use a renamer to build you're structure !
sorry just passing by

This is a feature, not a bug. Much easier to rename folders based on tag information than to build tag information based on file structure, try Use MP3Tag or another renamer.

Unfortunately with multiple importers (Grip, Soundjuicer, iTunes) and multiple clients (MythMusic, iTunes, Subsonic) - its not a case of 'just' rename folders; its a case of rename folders and rebuild every client DB every time you forget to change the out of box settings of your CD ripper to match your desired settings. It would make life so much easier if there was an option to organise by ID3 tag (like MythMusic and iTunes do).

Seconded. I have directories for each letter of the alphabet to optimize browsing in players that have trouble with massive lists of artists, if I leave every artist as a subdir of one master directory my other DLNA players choke. At the very least a way of configuring the directory structure would be nice.

I have the identical type of structure -> 0-9,a-z directories w/the correspnding artist/album directories in each single char dir. There's no way I'm changing this. am i out of luck? uninstall subsonic??
