Players like WMP don't support multi volume discs.
MP3Tag offer various options to renumber the tracks.
If you have no numbering at all, look up the album in a online database.
Select all the directories by selecting a top level one
If needed sort by album title or directory.
Select the Auto numbering Wizard
Now you have a consecutive numbering
Select a single directory and start with a value like 101 for disc 1, 201 for disc 2, etc.
After combining the albums you have them sorted by disc/track.
I have all my classical music organized by work. So if there is a problem with a track or it is simply missing, it is convenient to know its original track number
Add a disc number to all the tracks. This is the DISCNUMBER track in IDV3.
Choose Convert > Action and define an action, call it DiscSet
Choose Format value as the type of action.
The field the action is applied to is the track
The action is:
$if($less(%track%,100),$add($mul(%discnumber%,100),%track%),%track%)
$mul(%discnumber%,100) - multiply the discnumber by 100
$add($mul(%discnumber%,100),%track%) - add the track number
$if($less(%track%,100),$add($mul(%discnumber%,100),%track%),%track%) do this if the track is below 100 only.
Select all the tracks
Apply the action
Now you combine them in one album you have them ordered by CD and within a CD by track while preserving the original track number.
