not sure what you mean by that.  one thing is treat TPE2 as ALBUMARTIST
which is fairly straight forward.

the other thing is a function SC has of VA detection logic.

i contend we don't need the second thing except as an option.

i don't follow you here.  the only thing "new" is in using a MP3's TPE2
field to work as ALBUMARTIST, and thats totally optional, (and off by
default).

i think your issue has little to nothing to do with any of this, but i
could be wrong.

but what we are trying to do is figure out the best way for SC to
handle scanning of albums that have no album artist data and that
appear to be compilations.
