Linking Music Files to Albums
When an album already exists in your collection, and you want to add Music Files to the album and play them with your system's default Music Player, you can easily add Music Files by clicking the Add/Link Music Files button :
Hit the "Choose..." button to select a folder on your computer where you have audio files (MP3, Flac, WMA etc.) which you would like to link. Now hit "Scan".
In the screen, that you are already familiar with at this time, select the title of the Album from which you want to add the Music Files and click the "Link Selection to Existing Album" button.
A new screen will show up, with all the albums in your collection. Select the appropriate album and click Select. Before linking all files to the selected album, you can (if needed) re-order the Music Files. When done, click Link Files To Album.
