EAC : set .cue, .log, .m3u names

[sirt]

Hi,

I would like to have an automatic pattern name for .png, .cue, .log, .m3u :

Artist - CD's name (Year) [FLAC]

So, for example :

Daft Punk - Club (2003) [FLAC]

Regarding, .png, it seems it is there (see picture below) and works. But for .cue, .log, .m3u, these are created like that :

Daft Punk - Club.log
Daft Punk - Club.m3u
Club.cue


What can I do to obtain the pattern I want ?

You can use the tages %artist% etc. you'd probably still remember since you have read the user manual and/or the help ...

Well the tags included in the capture (Namering scheme) are these I want BUT it seems they are only used for .png AND NOT for .cue, .log and .m3u. That's what I tried to explain. Then is there another screen where I can set tags for .cue, .log, .m3u ?

I don't think, since PNGs are not found on CDs. They may be eg downloaded from a database or internet.

Unless one has not 500 CDs to rip, renaming by hand a few dozen images should not cause RSI.

I think the CUE and LOG are renamed automatically if the CD has CD-TEXT.

According to the instructions here (http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/exact_audio_copy_installation_and_configuration_page_2.cfm), the file naming settings are found under the "Filenaming" tab in EAC's options.

Well there ( EAC's options > Filename) have :

%albumartist% - %albumtitle% (%year%) [FLAC]\%tracknr2% - %title%

This creates a separate directory in the following form : Albumartist - Albumtitle (Year) [FLAC] and inside tracks come in the following forst : Tracknumber - Title. So it deals with compressed FLAC tracks but it doesn't apply to .cur, .log, .m3u. These are entitled as I said with my Daft Punk example. So there doesn't seem to be a way to control their names. I can rename manually afterwards with 'Albumartist - Albumtitle (Year) [FLAC]' but it is annoying.

If someone had told me yesterday there's no way to control the names of cue/log/m3u files, I'd have considered it more likely they're a bit clueless. It turns out though....

Controlling cue file name? (http://www.digital-inn.de/threads/controlling-cue-file-name.47207/)
Q: It seems there is no option to set cue names in EAC?
A: AFAIK you cannot control the CUE naming format.

Still somewhat sceptical, I paid a visit to one of those naughty sites to check the naming convention for those files.
They mostly use the same format. ie

Daft Punk - Club.log
Daft Punk - Club.m3u
Club.cue

So I guess you can't. How odd. Foobar2000 has syntax with enough variables to make formatting seem like creating an Avisynth script, and CUETools even lets you create templates
