Merge Albums

This function will start the Merge dialog for the selected albums in the collection editor. You can use this function when the AlbumPlayer added two seperate albums in case of a double CD. Note that the AlbumPlayer can automatically merge when adding new albums and directories are properly organised. This means that each CD should be in a separate subdirectory of the album and named as CD1, CD2 etc. See also  Scan Disk For New Track Files.

The Merge dialog contains the following fields:

Select which album will be the target to merge into

Here you can select from the list the album that should be the target album. So for instance when you have two albums one called "Pink Floyd - The Wall (CD1)" and the other "Pink Floyd - The Wall (CD2)" then select "Pink Floyd - The Wall (CD1)" as the target album to be merged into.

Adjust album artist and title if desired

Here you specify the new name of the album after merging. So in case of the example here above the new name should be "Pink Floyd - The Wall".

Artist
The artist name for the merged album

Title
The album title for the merged album

Merge albums as separate CD's instead of one track list

Set this option when you want to keep seperate CD's in the target album instead of creating one single track list. Separate CD's are visible in the album info track list and in the playlist. In the album editor the CD's can also still be handled as separate track lists.
