Technically you could have 2 albums with the same name - one an artist album and one a compilation various hits album. The tracks would need to be indexed separately, so the tagging would have to work long term. I guess everybody's needs are different. I personally exclusively use the AlbumArtist tag and on various artists albums I apply an AlbumArtist tag of "[Compilations]". On tracks that are performed by artists elsewhere in my collection, I tag them with that artist as the AlbumArtist. I effectively use it as a track artist tag. -- jaffacake ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jaffacake's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3206 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45810 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
