The Insanely Long PicardQT File Naming String

Ok, one of the things people know about me is that I have a ton of music. Another is that I hate clumsy music player interfaces. I like my Winamp/Explorer combo just fine.  :)

I also use my files to clean the database, which in turn lets me name and tag my files better.

This has led to the Insanely Long File Naming String.

Non-Various Artists

It's a great example of the power of PicardQT's extensible file naming string capabilities.

It's complex enough, though, that I have to manipulate it via its own spreadsheet, just to keep it straight.

It now handles classical correctly too! (Not sure if "No Conductor", "No Performer", and "No Composer" work right yet.)
