Why? I know that there have been differences on how to tag tracks ever
since tags have been invented. I have -always- tagged compilations
albums in the way that makes the most sense to me: if you have different
(various) artists contributing songs to a compilation, set the
compilation tag to 1/true, and the album artist of the entire album
(seems only logical) to "Various Artists". LMS knows that and has this
setting where you could (if you wanted) localize the album artist name
under which compilations are grouped (like "Varios" or "Interprètes
divers"...). I don't think I'm gonna change that any time soon for
myself.
Also, I'm not sure that I noticed that behavior in previous LMS versions
(maybe 7.9.1, 7.9 or even 7.8.x).

I'd say that's a different problem. I have no missing or blank named
genres. Only (for example) artists that show in the wrong genre, just
because they are part of a compilation where some *other* artist has a
track that's in this genre.

But after browsing my library a bit more, I can see that this is not
limited to virtual libraries. It's also present in the built-in genres
menu.
So I'm gonna post a message in the beta forum to let the devloppers now
about this. Maybe they care, maybe they figure it out, I don't know.
We'll see...
Anyway, thank you very much for your help.
