Multiple cd folder structure

I just created my music folder and use Tag&Rename editor to edit all my files. Most of my albums plex was able to pick up the tags, and cover images and have organized the way I want it too; however, there is one album plex is having trouble with. This album has 6 cd, but Plex organize as 5 indivdual albums. One of the albums includes 2 cd but it lists the all the tracks as one list. The ‘Disc 1’ & ‘Disc 2’ isn’t showing. I was hoping it would create one album with all the tracks list under ‘Disc #’.

Here is the structure of my folder. I have also added all the necessary id tags. The folder structure below should tell Plex to create all 6 cd in one album? In the editor I have also input the disk # and tell it that these are part of a compilation. Is there something I am not doing correctly?

- Music
  - Album Name
    - Disc 1
    - Disc 2
    - Disc 3
    - Disc 4
    - Disc 5
    - Disc 6

The folder structure is probably right.
But your metadata editor is doing it like you were using iTunes.

A compilation album must use the same album title metatag for every track in this compilation.
What you have there is probably a “box set” with several regular albums, where each album has its individual title. Plex doesn’t do box sets. You should unpack the box set into individual albums.

Apparently, my folder structure and id tags are correct. I just needed to do a ‘Plex Dance’.
