alignment overrides for mp3 files ?

[boarders paradise]

Hi. I read the help file plus a lot of threads here, but I am still unsure how exactly "alignment overrides" works ...

I would like to compare folders with mp3 files. Let's assume the following scenario:

Folder 1:

01 - name_of_track_1.mp3
02 - name_of_track_2.mp3
03 - name_of_track_3.mp3
....

Folder 2:

01 - different_name_for_track_1.mp3
02 - different_name_for_track_2.mp3
03 - different_name_for_track_3.mp3
....


As you can see, what the files have in common are the first 5 characters and the extension.

I don't know exactly which "alignment overrides" command I would have to use to make Folders 1+2 match.
Thanks for your help.

Hello,

The different text has to be specifically defined. So we can easily align *.png to *.jpg where the file names are the same, we cannot easily align your example.

* - name_of_track_*.mp3
* - different_name_for_track_*.mp3

Would match the above example, but not general cases where name of track and different name for track did not match. Regular expressions can also be used

(\d+) - name_of_track(\d+)\.mp3
$1 - different_name_for_track_$2\.mp3
Regular Expression enabled.
