I've been trying to figure this out for a few days now and I can't find an answer so I figured I'd ask you guys ^^ Here's the deal : I have some albums and a few compilations in my library. So I've tagged the compilations with ALBUMARTIST and ALBUM ARTIST tags (since I also use foobar2000) and checked "Group compilation albums together" in the preferences. So the compilations are listed under the album artist if it exists, or under "various artist" if it doesn't, and I don't have hundreds of artists appearing in the artist list. Everything is fine so far.
The problem occurs when I have an album of several an artist which also appears on some compilations : The compilations are also listed under this artist, with only one track. For exemple, I have the soundtrack of Nightmare Before Christmas, with covers from various artists on the second CD. The album artist is Danny Elfmann, so it appears under "Danny Elfman". There's a track from Korn, and since I don't have any albums from them, "Korn" is not listed under "artists" on my Squeezebox. However, there's a track from Marilyn Manson, and I happen to have one of his albums, so when I browse to "Marilyn Manson" I have 2 albums : The real album, and "Nightmare Revisited" with only one track, which doesn't make sense to me. It might seem trivial in this case, but I have some artists i my library that have made like 3 albums and appear on 8 compilations with one track on each one... Any help would be appreciated. I's prefer to use the default browser if possible, if not I can switch to custom browse.
