Folder name

You can easily add the date of an album by encoding the date into the folder name. This script can parse the following date schemes:

• 2015-08-27_Title_boing
• 2015-08_Title_boing
• 2015_Title_boing

You can also skip the date, of course. Every underline will be converted into space.

Folder config

Create a content.ini file to change some attributes for the containing folder. The format is like this:

title=Other name
description=Some description, \
even with line break
cover=someImage.jpg

Important: Don't add any spaces between the equal (=) sign.

Possible settings:

• title sets the title of the album. The default is the folder name.
• description of the folder. The default is none.
• cover sets the cover image for the album. The default is the first image in the album.
