+# Rule
+
+Airsonic Advanced categorizes directories and files into Album, Artist, Song, and Video using the following logic:
+
+| Type | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| Song | A single audio file. If it has the specified extensions which defined in the `Settings` > `General` > `Music files` field, it is considered a song. |
+| Video | A single video file. If it has the specified extensions which defined in the `Settings` > `General` > `Video files` field, it is considered a video. |
+| Album | A parent directory containing at least one Song or Video. |
+| Artist | A parent directory containing albums. If it contains songs or videos directly, it is considered an album. |
+
+
+Therefore, it is understood as follows:
+
+```
+.
+├── Artist1
+│   ├── Album1
+│   │   ├── Song1.flac
+│   │   ├── Song2.mp3
+│   │   └── Folder.jpg
+│   ├── Artist2
+│   │   ├── Album2
+│   │   │   ├── Song3.ogg
+│   │   │   ├── Song4.ogg
+│   │   │   └── Folder.jpg
+│   │   └──Album3
+│   │       ├── Song5.mp3
+│   │       ├── Song6.mp3
+│   │       └── Folder.jpeg
+├── Album2
+│   ├── Song7.mp3
