Suggestion: edit track order when creating cue file from separate tracks

Open phubers opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

I'm using CUEtools to create a CUE+WAV from a set of files, one file per track. However, the tracks are always used in alphabetical order. I'd like to be able to set the order in which the tracks are to be played, so an option to edit this before generating the CUE file would be great. Because the filenames are generated without track numbers, often in multiple passes, renaming them each time is not practical nor desirable.

CUETools accepts a simple playlist (m3u) file for input.

file.wav another file.wav

Thanks, I did not find that info in the manual. But CUETools does not actually respect the order of my playlist when I try this. If it's a user error, I'll gladly take the discussion elsewhere and close this issue, otherwise I'd like to keep my suggestion open.

Keep the suggestion open. I really need to update this description. http://cue.tools/wiki/CUETools_Settings#.286.29_CUE_Paths_.7Bsection.7D If I can help I would need more information so I can duplicate your steps (if necessary). https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?board=74.0
