I have one of those albums, tagged as follows: ALBUM=St. Elsewhere ALBUMARTIST=Gnarls Barkley ARTIST=Cee-Lo ARTIST=Danger Mouse COMPILATION=0 A search works for any of Gnarls Barkley, Cee-Lo, Danger Mouse. If you sort Browse Albums by artist, then it will be sorted under Gnarls Barkley. In album listings it's displayed as: St. Elsewhere by Gnarls Barkley Tracks are listed as: 1. Go-Go Gadget Gospel from St. Elsewhere by Cee-Lo, Danger Mouse I'd just as soon the track listings also displayed the ALBUMARTIST, but all-in-all, the behavior is quite good. I believe that in place of ALBUMARTIST you can also use BAND. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34741 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
