This has been like this for a while, so it's not a new issue, not sure
if it's even a bug. The issue is that my Now Playing screen on my Touch
for my compilation albums display artist as:
"Various Artists, Ulf Lundell"
The result is that without scrolling I really just see the first half
because that's all that fits the screen and this is really useless.
Is it my tagging that's wrong or is this something everyone else sees
too ?
My tagging is:
ARTIST=Ulf Lundell
COMPILATION=1
MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMARTIST=Various Artists
MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMARTISTSORTNAME=Various Artists
I suspect the result is that SBS interpret the MUSICBRAINZ tags the
same as ALBUMARTIST="Various Artists" which I think is pretty typical
tagging scheme unless you manually adjust it after ripping.
If it really need to display "Various Artists" it would be a lot better
if it showed it last, as this:
"Ulf Lundell, Various Artists"
Because then I would at least see the primary artist without having to
wait for the text to scroll so it's visible.
