And a clarification as to why this is the case: if you have a tribute album that is composed of a dozen artists all playing Dylan songs, you may wish to set the Album Artist to Dylan in order to file it "correctly" (ie, as a record store would usually file it -- just because Bono sings one track on it, that doesn't make it a U2 album, and the VA bin at the record store would be a mess if it was filled with every tribute album). So Album Artist overrides any sort of compilation check: you've said, "Yes, I know this looks like a dozen artists, but please file it over there". Unless you override that override with COMPILATION to say "yeah, yeah, go put it into VA anyway". -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83232 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
