Auto-Organize music based on Tags (Artist, Album, Etc)
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm migrating to Retro from Vinyl Music Player because Retro can edit tags on Opus files while Vinyl cannot. Vinyl, on the other hand, is better at organizing files stored in different locations based om Album/Arist tags. What this means is in Vinyl I can change the tags on some files, and they'll be auto-organized without changing their location. In Retro, on the other hand, if files have identical tags they'll only be classifed as the same album if they're in the same location. Thus, I have to use my file manager to sort my musoc files instead of Retro itself.
Describe the solution you'd like The easy solution would be to copy/past the music sorting method used in Vinyl, where the app works around file location to organize bqsed on tags, but I think Retro could go one step farther and also have the option to sort files once their tags have changed into corresponding folders in the phone's default Music Folder. This would be similar to the way Rhythm Box functions on Linux when moving files from an IPod onto a computer. If the latter-most concept would be applied, I would reccomend having two ways to implement it. One: an option to automatically organize files automatically when tags are edited (which can easily be enabled/disabled from the settings), and an option to auto-sort on demand from the "context menu" of individual albums, similar to how one can edit Album Tags or delete entire albums.
Describe alternatives you've considered At preset, the best way to manage muaic files seems to be oeganizing them first in a file manager, and then refining their tags. While inconvenient, this is acceptable, but if Music Organization could be done entirely from Retro Music Player itself then the benefits would be most welcome.
