I've just started using my SB3 and am very pleased with it. I have a problem with slimserver which may result from incomplete understanding of how it works.
I have several albums tagged with more than one artist for certain tracks e.g. Steve Earle's 'El Corazon' has Emmylou Harris siging on one track and is thus tagged as ARTIST steve earle; emmylou harris Slimserver seems to use the presence of multiple artist tags to define this album as a compilation. (Is this how it does it?) Now in Server Settings\Behaviour\Compilations if I select 'Group compilation albums together' the album 'El Corazon' shows up under 'various artists' but not 'Steve Earle'. If I select 'List compilation albums under each artist' then I see the album under Steve Earle but every artist for every compilation listed - which I don't want. I want to stick with 'Group compilation albums together' to keep the artists who only appear on compilations out of the artists list BUT I also want albums by one artist (with additional contributors on some tracks) to show up under that artist and not just in 'Various artists' Even if I set the tag ALBUM ARTIST or BAND to 'Steve Earle' the album still only shows up under 'Various Artists' - This happens whether I select 'List albums by band' or 'List albums by all artists for that album'. Naturally I have the checkbox for band/orchestra at the top of the page ticked. Can anyone explain to me how to achieve this? -- SMC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SMC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9162 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31000 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
