Hi, I’m am just getting started and am having trouble with the initial import. When I import an existing directory of files, beets puts everything under a flat directory structure that looks like:
Compilations/Back In Black/
All tracks appear under this single directory, even though I have for the most part standard albums, not compilations. As far as I can tell, “Back In Black” may have gotten used as the sole album title because it comes from one of the first artists, AC/DC.
Judging from beet info
, most of my existing tracks do have compete tags, with albumartist, artist, album, track info, etc. And beets does seem to be aware of this information, based on the output I get from beet ls
after importing.
Maybe I’m missing some additional configuration that I need prior to importing? I’m not sure if it matters, but my source tracks are initially contained in a flat directory structure prior to importing.
Any help is appreciated.
