In the past, Mp3Tag treated TPE2 as Band. Newer versions call TPE2
ALBUMARTIST, which was a weird thing to do when FLAC stores BAND tags. So with
the latest Mp3Tag release, it is possible to remap BAND as follows:
In Mp3Tag Options > Tags > Mapping, enter the following:
Tag / Source / Target
ID3v2 / ALBUMARTIST / BAND
ID3v2 / ALBUMARTISTSORT / BANDSORT
This configures Mp3Tag, such that you can read/write a tag called "BAND" in
Mp3Tag editor and it will be handled the same as FLAC tags. i.e. it will store
your Band field in the id3 frame called "TPE2".
There are 3 ways of viewing/entering tags in Mp3Tag:
1. Enter directly in a column in the list view
2. Enter in a field in the Tag Panel
3. Enter through Extended Tags. Select "Add field..." and select "BAND" from
the drop-down list or type it in.
I can't remember what fields you get to see in Mp3Tag by default. If you
haven't got a Band column in the list or field in the quick tag panel, you can
configure via the following:
Configure a column in the column list:
Right-click on column headings, select "Cusomise columns...".
Create a new column Name=Band, Value=%BAND%, Field=%BAND%.
Configure the Tag Panel:
In Options > Tag Panel, "Add field...".
Field=BAND, Name=Band.
In LMS > Server Settings > My Music, select "Treat TPE2 MP3 tag as Band.
