Ah, of course you are right, the simple search does return tracks - I
wasn't thinking clearly, for some reason assuming "song titles" were
different from "tracks"...
However, the problem still remains, but I don't think I've explained
the issue clearly.
If I search for "Vivaldi" using the simple search, I get one artist
retrieved, no albums and no song titles. This is correct. If I click
on the returned artist ("Antonio Vivaldi"), three "Albums" are listed.
However, these are not the only three albums that Vivaldi appears on.
There is another which happens to be a compilation album.
If I search on Artist using Advanced Search, *all* the tracks from
*all* the albums are in returned, i.e. including the compilation album
tracks.
And just to re-iterate, all my tracks have Artist populated - in the
case of my classical music, the artist is the composer, but I have also
populated the composer tag, as a duplicate of the artist tag, just to
make sure...!
Jim, In answer to your question, I get the same behaviour whether I
have the Composers behaviour switched on or off. When I browse by
artist, I see all the composers that don't have compilation albums, as
they are listed under Various Artists. This is because as mentioned
above, the Artist tag is populated as composer as well. Hope I'm not
confusing everyone...!
Chris.
