Hi,

Try the following

Server Settings:Behaviour:Common Album Titles
Check the box.
Add the appropriate name(s) in.

You may think that this doesn't help. You may need to tag all you mp3s with "noalbumdata" then add that to the list in the server settings. This may not be the answer that you are looking for but it works well for me.

I beleive the behaviour you are refering to was changed to reflect the efforts of the Compliations section.

Subject: [slim] Browse Artists broken in 6.2.1


I upgraded to 6.2.1 tonight from 6.1.1.  Everything
went very smoothly.  I'm not having recanning problems
and things seemed to be going OK.

However my Browse Artists function does not appear to
be working properly anymore.  For example, let's say I
want to see songs by Nirvana:

Browse Artists.  OK.

Select "N" from list.  OK.

Select "Nirvana".  OK.

"1 album with 11 songs by 1 artist."  I don't use
Album tags, so that's OK too.  Link shows "No album"
as it did before.

When I click the link, 6.1.1 used to bring up a list
of the 11 songs.  Now when I click the link it shows
all songs with "No Album", instead of Nirvana songs
with no album.

I realize not using the album tag goes against
convention, but I don't have any use for it, and it's
far too late now.

Is this the intended functionality?  I used to get all
Nirvana songs with no album, which was what I was
looking for, but now I get all songs with no album,
which is nearly my entire collection and is completely
useless.

The tree at the top says:

"Home / Browse Artists / Nirvana / No Album"

but this is not what I'm seeing at all, I'm seeing
more like Browse Artists / No Album.  The artist
doesn't even figure into it anymore.

I have rescanned twice, once by clearing the library
and rescanning.  No effect.

I can play all Nirvana songs by selecting the add to
playlist button when Nirvana / No Album is displayed,
but this isn't exactly what I want to do because then
I have to remove unwanted items from the player
playlist.  I'd rather add them in one at a time like I
used to be able to.

Any ideas?  Bug or ID10T error?  Thanks.
