Yea that makes a lot more sense now, having two "Various Artists"
entries with different contents is very confusing.

It works in the official version, I hadn't applied any patches on this
installation.

It makes a lot more sense now, when I know there are two different
"Various Artists" entries. Sorry if I've caused a lot of confusion in
this thread because I only thought there was a single "Various Artists"
entry.
I'm not sure exactly what the best solution would be but it's confusing
as it works now with two "Various Artists" entries which contains
different things. So the top entry should at least be renamed to
"Compilations" and preferably moved up to a main menu called
"Compilations".
