Originally created by @juriroemer on GitHub (Oct 23, 2021).

Is there a way or any plans on supporting a CD directory structure? CD ripped audio books mostly come in a structure like this:

-> Author
  -> Book title
     -> CD 1
     -> CD 2
     -> CD 3

Right now if you use this structure, you will get an idividual "audio book" in the UI for each CD. Throwing all the mp3's imto the "book title" folder only works if you sort the tracks by hand, because all individual CD's start their track ID's from 1.

@advplyr commented on GitHub (Oct 23, 2021):

I don't have any audiobooks with the audio files in separate folders, but I have several audiobooks that have "CD 1" or "Disc 1" in the filename, which also messes up the sort since each CD starts from track 1.

I did some searching and see that the CD folders are a common format, so I think it should be supported.

Now I think that maybe there should be an additional field saved on the audio tracks for CD #. The CD # field would be populated from either the folder names as in your use-case, or the filename.

Supporting the CD ID3 and CD field in general is still planned. I'm making #155 the main thread for that update.
