Description Johnny Proton 2004-06-16 17:23:03 UTC 
I prefer to encode my files like this:

  artist-disc-track-name.ogg

I don't want to have to nest them in folders for artist and track.  I like
having descriptive filenames and I just throw them in the same folder.

Can you change the preferences to allow this?
Comment 1 Ross Burton 2004-09-21 12:58:27 UTC 
Set the directory pattern to [none] and hit gconf-editor to create your own
pattern, the key is /apps/sound-juicer/file-pattern.

Wouldn't be better to be able to modify it inside SJ ?

I'll try to do a pull request for that.

Here, I did the pull request on Github. Let me know what you think ;)

Thanks for taking the time to look at this. Unfortunately we don't use github for development - it's just a readonly mirror of git.gnome.org. To submit patches please attach them to bugzilla (you can use git-bz¹ to do this). I've had a quick look at the pull request and regrettably I don't think it's suitable in its current form. We really need to find a better UI than adding writing raw format strings in a text entry as it's not much of a step up from using dconf-editor or gesttings on the command line. The UI should describe the format string as the combobox does at the moment and provide a way to edit it. The custom string should also be validated. This bug is actually a duplicate of bug 319024 which has some more comments about this.
