I have had some success getting what I want.
Chris your suggestion gave me a track filename as you specified, but I actually wanted it to be just the Track Title so I reduced it to just %title%
However I wanted the other Tags you list added to the MP3 and managed that with other settings as shown in the pics. I am still 'learning' what does what so I might still have some duplication or unwanted entries on these screens, I will refine them on future rips.
The only failures I had were the albumartist and genre tags did not fill. Not sure why.Confused

That is not where I said you should put it.

The Command Line you have altered probably looked like this before you started

Thanks for the additional information.
I did alter the Filename to your string and it did do as I said. I have since reset it to just %title% as in attached.
Your command line string looks very comprehensive, I will give that a go and see what it gives me.
Have you learnt these commands from some particular source?

The way I set the filename commands up came about because I spent a bit of time working out how I was going to rip my large CD collection and keep it manageable.

The string I posted that is in EAC options automatically directs things so that things occur in a logical manner.
So it goes to the location that's set, and looks for an Artist folder. If there is no folder for the Artist it creates one.
Next up it looks for an Album folder. If there is no folder for the Album it creates one.
Lastly is writes the individual track files with a 2 digit number first (01-99), inserts space/-/space, then follows up with the track Title.

I played around with a few different software media players and ended up with the rip scheme having the best results with all of them.

I switched to using dBPoweramp a long time ago.
It has a nicer, more intuitive interface, goes about its business faster than EAC, and has a whole host of other functions.
The results are the same as with EAC, but there's a lot less faffing about.

I'd second the use of dBPoweramp AccurateRip, after trying all sorts (MediaMonkey, WMA, iTunes etc..) I switched some years ago. I find it just simply does what it should and provides excellent rips which can be compared to a database for accuracy just to reassure you. Add Foobar for file management and you have everything you need.

Just listen, if it sounds good to you, enjoy it.
