(I know you might not like it but) I use iTunes to manage my music library. All my compilations (and some albums that are not compilations but list the songwriter as Artist) are marked as compilations in iTunes tags..
I have slimserver setup to use the iTunes plugin and set the options to group compilations, and to show albumns by band rather than artist.. worked a treat.. showed all compilations under Various Artists just as it does in iTunes. The next morning I turned on my Squeezebox and all the artists from my compilation albums were back in my browse by artist lists.. and Various Artists disappeared.. No matter what settings I use now.. I cant get it to group them again. (I have the Rescan Music Library plugin set to rescan at 02:00 every morning) Very Odd that I managed to get it to work and then it just stopped.. I wish I could remember what I changed.. Tried clearing and rescanning.. tried stopping slimserver and restarting, then clearing and scanning.. will keep fiddling and report back.. something will work eventually. -- bigjules ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bigjules's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4805 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21944 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
