Thanks Jim for your reply. I am working with .wma files ripped by Windows Media Player. Ya I know... not ideal but that's another thread!
Your suggestion to add an ALBUMARTIST tag to prevent a compilation was actually the key piece of info for me. It seems that WMP added an ALBUMARTIST tag to _all_ my files. Typically ALBUMARTIST matches the ARTIST tag. In the case of a compilation album, the ARTIST tag names the song artist while ALBUMARTIST is populated with "Various Artists." That conflict is what seems to be my issue. So, I used MP3Tag to set the ALBUMARTIST field to <blank> in all my compilation albums, rescanned, and now I see the albums filed under Various Artists as I had expected. Thanks for your help. Now it's back to enjoying music again! -- rncmkg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rncmkg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35664 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74462 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
