Could you check in the database if they really are track artists ?
My understanding is that:
- contributor_track.role=6 -> Track Artist
- contributor_track.role=5 -> Album Artist
- contributor_track.role=1 -> Artist
I'm not sure exactly when SBS scanner set's it to 1 and 6, if the
artists you think is track artists is set to 1 it explains what you are
seeing.
Could it be that all those track artists are on compilation albums, so
when you activate Various Artists setting they are removed because it
then only shows artists on normal albums in the main list ?
