I might try that, although that doesn't seem logical. I wouldn't expect an artist with an added contributor role or 'ARTIST' to appear among the album artists. I was thinking that possibly having 'Various Artists' as the ALBUMARTIST for a non-compilation might do the trick. Basically, by changing COMPILATION=1 to 0 on one compilation album. Haven't you said in the past that you use ALBUMARTIST for things such as tribute albums? If you had a compilation album that was a tribute to say, George Gershwin, but he didn't appear anywhere else in the library, then I would suspect that the behavior I'm seeing would mean that George Gershwin would not appear in the Album Artists browse list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101264 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
