Hi Robin,
Thanks for your support, and for reading through that very long post!
If you're interested in seeing how this would work (I have not yet
implemented the "albumid" part (my step 1) but that would only be
needed if you organize your music some bizarre way), set the "Group
compilation albums together" parameter and then apply the patch below.
You'll have to wipe the cache.
Now back to getting my "sort albums within Browse Artist by year"
patch working in 6.5.
cheers,
greg
