Hello Pippin You may remember way back in 2013, we had a good thrashing out of Artist/Album Artist display behaviour for compilation albums, with you and Michael getting your heads together. One problem turned out to be a longstanding server-side issue and Michael successfully fixed it, to the delight of several users (I believe someone called the fix "a miracle"!).
Another problem however was iPeng-side and not a problem in LMS Web UI. I believe you found the fix here: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?51929-iPeng-support-thread&p=750711&viewfull=1#post750711 (see preceding posts for discussion) A lot has changed since then.... however, the problem still persists for me (iPeng 8.1.2) when compilation tag is set to 1, i.e: Server settings: "Use single, configurable list of Artists" + "List compilation albums under each artist" Tags on FLAC files: Compilation = 1, Album Artist = eg Soundtrack, Artist = e.g. Brian Eno, Iggy Pop, New Order, etc, Problem (a): in iPeng, go to Artists > Select the Album Artist e.g. 'Soundtrack' > Select the Album > the list of tracks all display the Album Artist e.g. 'Soundtrack' and not the 'Track Artist' which it should display e.g. Brian Eno, Iggy Pop etc In fact, the problem has got 'worse' because what used to display perfectly in iPeng now has problems: Problem (b) : same server settings as above, in iPeng, go to Albums, select the Album, the list of tracks now has some displaying the Album Artist and some displaying the 'Track Artist' Problem (c) - change the server setting to 'Group Compilation Albums Together' - Whether go to Artists > Album Artist > Select the Album OR to Album > Select the Album > the list of tracks now has some displaying the Album Artist and some displaying the 'Track Artist' in identical pattern to problem (b) Would you kindly be able to try and replicate (and hopefully fix) this? If you can't do it easily, then I can post back with more details/screen grabs/test files as always. Thanks, ff ------------------------------------------------------------------------ flimflam's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56891 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
