The album info page does display the album artist at the top. Do you mean for the artists shown in the song list? I'll have to test it. Normally I tag ALBUMARTIST=Frank Sinatra ARTIST=Frank Sinatra ARTIST=Luther Vandros I would have to see what the treatment of the following looks like. ALBUMARTIST=Frank Sinatra ARTIST=Luther Vandros (An aside: I think many of these problems stem from the practice of using the contributor role of 'Track Artist', which is not necessary. It just complicates everything being done both in the DB queries and the display logic. This needs to be fixed at some point, because the current situation can't be supported.) -- JJZolx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89042 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
