Hmm. You're right. Because then
Code:
--------------------
ALBUMARTIST tag(s)?
NOT PRESENT
Set album artist(s) to contributor(s) in ARTIST tag(s)
--------------------
would not work if you had differing artists on the tracks. You don't
know who the album artist is. So, I think the only thing you can then do
is to say that you _cannot_ override the compilation logic with
COMPILATION=0. You can force an album to be marked a compilation with
COMPILATION=1, but that's it.
Something else I forgot: Dealing with ALBUMARTIST=Various Artists (or
other strings if you want to add a new pref). As I said before, I think
the best way to deal with it is to set compilation=1 and set the album
artist to the VA. This eliminates the confusion for anyone using this
method of marking their compilations and avoids creating another
'Various Artists' in the db.
Code:
--------------------
COMPILATION tag?
1
Set compilation=1
ALBUMARTIST tag(s)?
"Various Artists"
Set album artist to the VA pseudo-artist
PRESENT, ANY OTHER VALUE
Set album artist(s) to contributor(s) in ALBUMARTIST tag(s)
NOT PRESENT
Set album artist to the VA pseudo-artist
ELSE
ALBUMARTIST tag(s)?
"Various Artists"
Set compilation=1
Set album artist to the VA pseudo-artist
PRESENT, ANY OTHER VALUE
Set compilation=0
Set album artist(s) to contributor(s) in ALBUMARTIST tag(s)
NOT PRESENT
Are ARTIST(s) same on all tracks?
YES
Set compilation=0
Set album artist(s) to contributor(s) in ARTIST tag(s)
NO
Set compilation=1
Set album artist to the VA pseudo-artist
