Hi,

In browser view: Home>Albums sorting by 'Artist, Year, Album' is
chosen. Some albums are listed by aritst, some are listed by Band
(album artist). However, it seems that sort order is always by artist.
What it means is that compilation albums that are listed by albumartist
are sorted randomly, out of order, for their albumartist - they show on
the list randomly, sorted by their highest ranked artist that is. For
example:

1. <album 1> by Bach
2. <album 2> by Bach
3. <album 3> by Jacques Loussier Trio
4. <album 4> by Bach
5. <album 5> by Glenn Gould
6. <album 6> by Bach

where album 3 is a compilation of baroque artists that includes Bach
and album 5 is Goldberg Variations (all Bach, and Glenn Gould album
artists). BTW, I know it can be chnaged by <...>SORT tags, but the
default behavior doesn't seem right.

As a second issue, why is album 5 listed by band (Glenn Gould) when it
is not a compilation - Bach is the only artist?

And, since I'm at it, looks like number of artists reported varies from
screen to screen. Home screen reports (what appears to be a number of
cleen artists + album artists), while Home>Albums screen reports total
number of artists, standalone and compilations; 400-ish vs 700-ish in
my case.

thks,

K

The sound stage will open up, bass will tighten and the imaging will
improve. DVD performance will also increase substantially.
