If nothing else works, and you are willing to mess with the database,
then here's what you can do. Using MySQL query browser (or similar
program) get table 'albums'. Note columns 'compilation' and
'contributor'. For albums that are in Various Artists, 'compilation'
column would be '1'; change it to '0'. Column 'contributor' is used for
sorting the album in album view when sorted by artist, album. Currently
it should hold a number that corresponds to the id for Various Artists
in contributor table. Search contributor table for the artist that you
want to use for sorting, note its Id and update contributor column in
'album' table with that number. Next time you do a full rescan, you'd
have to repeat the process, so document it or automate it: write sql
statements that do what you want and put them into the C:\Program
Files\SqueezeCenter\server\SQL\mysql\schema_optimize.sql file (on
windows).

In order to get multi disc album split by CDs, change corresponding
settings on Music Library -> group discs.


hope this helps,
