I don't think Material is at fault here. Rather it is how the Artist and Album Artist tags are being used. In your scenario (which is the same as mine), you should reverse how the fields are being used. There should be three or four Artist entries, separated by a semicolon and only a single Album Artist. Artist: https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Artist Album Artist: https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Release#Artist I use a single Album Artist (even if it is a copy of the track artist) for all albums. Where necessary, individual tracks have multiple artists, each separated by a semicolon (although LMS does not require it be a semicolon this is a configurable option on the Behaviors page, along with how one wants to treat the Album Artist field). Here's my example. Morgan Page is the Album Artist. 31796 When I click the "In The Air" album I see the tracks. Each track lists each track artist. (Notice Track 6 only lists Morgan Page, but others list multiple artists.) 31797 When I click "More..." I see the album artist and track artists. Each of them is clickable and takes me to a page with their listings. 31798 BTW: I made this exact same mistake with my own tags many years ago. Fortunately, with mp3tag and other software it's relatively easy to move the information around. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: track-more.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=31798| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ prabbit's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11142 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109624
