Hi all,
my favorite artist, Joao Gilberto, has a career that spans over 55
years of activity. After acquiring most of his albums and ripping them
to my PC, I thought it would be nice to view such albums in Windows
Explorer organized by the release year.
I thought it could be easily accomplished by changing one of the folder
attributes (or properties, or details, I'm not sure what the
technically correct name is). Each album is contained into one folder.
However, even thought XP allows me to sort the albums by the 'Year'
attribute, it apparently provides no means of changing this value. All
albums appear under the header 'Unspecified'.
To summarize:
- inside 'My Music' folder, I have a 'Joao Gilberto' folder,
with a template of 'Music Artist';
- inside this 'Joao Gilberto' folder, I have several albums with
the 'Music Album' template;
- Windows XP allows me to arrange these folders by their 'Year'
property, but provides no means of changing this value. This way, all
folders appear under the 'Unspecified' header and the albums remain
unsorted.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions!
Thank you,
Ricardo Jasinski.
