Hi, thanks for this guide, this is really useful.
I bought a multi-discs audiobook and I couldn't run your move/rename script successfully as obviously some tracks had the same number but from different discs.

I had to update your script to add the disc number if there are multiple discs, eg line 3 of my Mp3tag\data\actions\&1 Rename Relocate Extras Title.mta now is:

1=D:\\AudioBooksTarget\\%albumartist%\\%series%\\%year% - %album% [ '['%series% %series-part%']']\\%album% (%year%)[ '['%series% %series-part%']']$ifgreater(%_total_files%,1,[- disc$num(%discnumber%,2)] - pt$num(%track%,2),)

Thanks! That's a good solution which preserves the original CD formatting, thank you for sharing. I'll add another action script to keep the CD formatting.

In these situations I use the fix track shortcut (ctrl+k) to set absolute track numbers. Eg. (1-36) instead of (1-12, 1-12, 1-12). I also merge multifile books to a single chapterized m4b. That way I never run into this issue, but admittedly this does deviate from the original formatting.
