MrSinatra, I tried the files you've attached to bug 8001. I'm using the latest svn/nightly release of 7.1 to verify this to make sure everything already changed in the code is part of the test.
With your files, I can confirm that I get the following sorting order in the Albums menu when sorting by "Artist,Year,Album": - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 1 by Billy Joel - Love Affair by Sophie Zelmani - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 3 by Various Artists If I now in "SqueezeCenter Settings/Behaviour" change from "List albums by all artists for that album" to "List albums by band" I instead get: - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 1 by Billy Joel - Love Affair by Sophie Zelmani - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 3 by Billy Joel As you can see, the sorting is still incorrect, but it now displays Billy Joel instead of Various Artists on the Disc 3 album. Now, I added a COMPILATION=0 tag to the Disc 3 files, an then I instead get: - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 1 by Billy Joel - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 3 by Billy Joel - Love Affair by Sophie Zelmani Now, I can even change the option in "SqueezeCenter Settings/Behaviour" back to "List albums by all artists for that album" and get the result: I edited the tags with the Mp3Tag program and selected to write MP3v2.3 tags. - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 1 by Billy Joel - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 3 by Billy Joel, Ray Charles - Love Affair by Sophie Zelmani As you can see the sorting is still correct but it now displays each individual artist for the Disc 3 album. If "List albums by all artists for that album" is selected and the "Separator for Multiple Items in Tags" setting in "SqueezeCenter Settings/Behaviour" isn't set to "/" to match your artist separator character, album disc 3 will in the last step in the test procedure instead be displayed as: - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997: Limited Edition Disc 3 by Billy Joel/Ray Charles, Billy Joel The sorting is still the same though. Finally, I verified the same thing in the latest 7.0.1 release and got the exact same behaviour as in the latest 7.1 release. Is the behaviour shown in the test above when a COMPILATION=0 tag exists how you would like it to work ? Is this the behaviour you get in your own library for all albums which SqueezeCenter has considered as non compilation(non VA) albums ? -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47202 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
