I've finally got to the bottom of this, in case anyone else sees the
same problem. There are actually two issues (tested with a nightly build
from 23/9/05).
1) Tag&Rename seems to be setup by default to add an AlbumArtist tag
which is the same as the track artist. This seems to have the effect of
randomly splitting some albums into multiple albums with the same name
in slimserver.
2) If you remove the AlbumArtist tag from all tracks you want to fix,
then running a full scan that clears everything this does not fix the
problem. You need to manually delete the database file.

I downloaded the latest nightly of 6.2 on 10/10/05 and I love the new
various artists feature.
However, I am seeing a problem with a number of my albums where the
tracks from a compilation get split across two Albums when listed in
the Various Artists list. About half of my various albums are fine,
and the other half get split, into two typically, but "Coldcut
Journeys by DJ" gets split into four. I can see no obvious reason why.
The albums are all flac.
Is anyone else seeing the same?
