prophetik music Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 The "Set Subtitle" field of the tags (not visible in most applications, unfortunately) has had the OCR ID # I believe for pretty much the entire time. and tagmi can see that. thought that it was in there somewhere =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xarnax42 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I started doing something very similar a while back. Fortunately, I heard about the re-tagging before I got too far. Kudos for getting it done, though. Also, I love the "Dude You Gotta Sort This S..." Folder. Looks familiar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem for me is, I've got a lot of those folders at the moment, so I tend to go "meh, can't be arsed" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duskvstweak Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I organize my OCR collection in my iTunes by setting the album for the game, the remix artist (if there's more than one, I tend to play favorites) and I use the image OCR provides with the game for the album artwork. How do you organize your OC collection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I organize it via the filesystem - I have my OCR stuff in G:\VGM\OverClocked ReMix\ and then I have a folder for each game so all Chrono Trigger mixes would be in G:\VGM\OverClocked ReMix\Chrono Trigger\.

ocre Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Much like everything I own, they are all tossed into one giant pile, whose properties are lovingly memorized, for easy access and enjoyment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rexy Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I keep the albums in folders, but all regular mixposts in a giant cluttered pile within another. Thankfully I can organise it at any time, so just looking up something by game/artist isn't really a big problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DusK Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I organize it via the filesystem - I have my OCR stuff in G:\VGM\OverClocked ReMix\ and then I have a folder for each game so all Chrono Trigger mixes would be in G:\VGM\OverClocked ReMix\Chrono Trigger\. This is pretty much exactly what I do, except I don't keep OCR stuff in my VGM folder. So it'd be My Music\OverClocked ReMix\Chrono Trigger.

HalcyonSpirit Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 In my Music folder, there's a folder for Game Remixes. In there, albums go in Remix Albums, and individual OCR stuff goes in the OCR folder. Inside that, if there's enough mixes for the game(s), it gets its own folder with the name of that game or, if it's a part of a series, the name of the series (Mario games -> Mario folder, Chrono Trigger/Cross -> Chrono Series folder, etc.). The rest goes in the Misc folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnipotentBagel Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Ahh, here's a topic near and dear to my heart. I use MediaMonkey to keep track of everything because of it's ridiculous amount of control and tagging options. At the top, I use the "Group" tag to separate out video game music from contemporary stuff. Then I set the genre to the game series/franchise (that way if I just want to listen to, say, Final Fantasy mixes, I just filter the "Final Fantasy" genre). One of the Custom tags is used for specific game within a series (ie- Final Fantasy VI). Album is simply "OverClocked Remix". I've recently been thinking of setting up another custom tag to note the original track (so, like, all my "Terra" remixes can be grouped/filtered), but with nearly 1000 tracks, it'd take a really long time to update them all. My music folder used to be one giant collection, but since I switched to MediaMonkey, I found it worked better to sort the files into folder by Group, Album Artist, then album or game series. The one thing about the default tagging from the site that I don't like: separating artists by comma. MediaMonkey supports multiple-artist listing by putting a semicolon between entries. Thus, if I want to pull up a specific artist, all of their collab work comes up along with their solo work. With commas, it creates a new artist entry in the database with all the names rolled together. It's no big deal, but I usually have to spend a bit of time manually updating them when a new album releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Strader Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I used to have all the remixes downloaded but it was too much to handle... so I pretty much just use the website + the youtube preview most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I have a special folder for ReMixes, then folders within those folders. Here's the lowdown. Music- ---OcReMix- ------ARmed & DANGerous- ------------Disc 1 ------------Disc 2 ------------Disc 3 ------------Disc 4 ------BadAss Boss Themes ------Nintendo- ------------Mario Series- ---------------Mario Bros Series ---------------Mario Galaxy ---------------Mario Kart ------------Zelda Series- ---------------Zelda OoT ---------------Zelda 2 ------Misc- ------------Game Title 1 ------------Game Title 2 ------Sega- ---------Sonic Series- ------------Sonic 1 ------------S3&K So, it that's pretty much how it looks. With way more folders though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoloGamer Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 vg music > Publisher > series (if it's big enough to warrant i.e. Mario, Castlevania) > Game OCRs share the same folder space as other mixes and source tunes. I rarely keep albums in their own separate folder unless they're something unique about them (Chiptuned Rockman, FFIV Celtic Moon) or I'm feeling lazy. When I do, they'll go either in the game's folder or the series', depending on the scope of the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 My music is spread out among a few locations (namely My Documents > My Completed Downloads, My Documents > My Music > iTunes > iTunes Music [left over from when I used iTunes, would've broken far too many songs to move/delete it], and the ultra-confusing Desktop > Games > Pictures > Music), so it's not THAT organized at all. That said, in my media player itself it's all extremely organized. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
