If an album seems like a compilation (i.e. songs by different artists), and there is no album artist, then it is a compilation. >> When browsing albums, compilation albums should be displayed by "Various >> Artists" (or the configered alternative name). If sort by album artist >> is selected, it should sort by that name too. > >i think there is a bug when doing Home->Artists->Various Artists. > I don't think so - works fine for me. >and what do you mean 'if sort by album artist is selected?' Isn't this how you usually browse your music in the webUI? Browse Albums, with "Sort By" set to "artist, album". That "artist" is the album artist. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
