How to force 2 digits format for track numbers?

What operating system are you seeing the problem on?

Windows

Your settings

This function already sets the necessary leading digits / zeroes for album_track_num:

tidal-dl-ng/tidal_dl_ng/helper/path.py

Lines 91 to 95 in 17390cb

	case "album_track_num":
	if isinstance(media, Track | Video):
	num_tracks: int = media.album.num_tracks if hasattr(media, "album") else 1
	count_digits: int = int(math.log10(num_tracks)) + 1
	result = str(media.track_num).zfill(count_digits)

What exactly is your idea? What do you need this for?

I am using the exe for Windows, for me albums with less than 10 songs, will always be missing a 0, this happens with singles too

only if the album has more than 10 songs they will all get double digits

this makes it inconsistent, just wondering if there was a way to always have albums and singles named with two digits, from 01 to 09 instead of 1 to 9

+1, I'd also prefer forcing 2-digit track numbers everywhere for consistency.

I am also having this same issue, using the Linux CLI version. I would also like a way to force the leading zero, or two-digit track number.

maybe using something like "max(2, int(math.log10(num_tracks)) + 1)" would yield the desired result (minimum 2 digits, even if the number of tracks is below 10)

This only solves it for albums, but not for playlists.

Anyway... Why do you actually want leading zeroes if they are not necessary? I mean this app takes care about necessary leading zeroes so sorting will work just fine.
