Walt, I own S&D Presenter and I never have used it, and I tried to load my songs into S&D. Using the format that is most common D-A-T (all of mine are in that convention) Disc, Artist, Title, I imported my songs. Ninety-eight percent imported perfectly, the other 2% had the entire file name clumped in one field. The cause was missing track number data.
To fix the problem I added a "dash 00" (dash zero zero) to the disc ID and reimported. You can also move those files with some missing file name data to another folder or folders, and then import the bulk of your songs using whatever convention best describes your format. Remember that every dash defines a field of data. Using Bruce's example:
Disk-Track Number - Artist - Title (3 dashes) Disc dash Track Number space dash space Artist space dash space Title
ASK1401A-01 - Owen, Jake - After The Music Stopped (3 dashes)
Using this three dash format fills all four columns
OR
Disk - Artist - Title (2 dashes) Disc space dash space Artist space dash space Title
ASK1401A - Owen, Jake - After The Music Stopped (2 dashes)
Using 2 dash format will leave the track number field empty.
Lastly S&D allows you to define the naming convention anyway that you want to have your songs named. Remember the spaces need be consistent as well.
When discs have more than 1 dash in the disc ID then those will have the data missing between the 1st dash and the dash before the track number such as:
CBE4-24-03
Will show up in S&D as CBE4 in disc field and track 3 in the track number field. The 24 will be missing
Please give us an exact example of your file names.
