Fully agree with your post; it was the same as my conclusion. Except for consideration of Composers, Conductors and Band/Orchestra. Perhaps these roles should only be added into contributor_albums link table if the same tag value is on every song of the album (the same as track artists are not included in the contributor_albums table). i.e. don't include a composer, conductor or band/orchestra if they have a guest role on an album.
All compilation albums would still be available through "Artists > Compilations". It would be nice to get to the point where the list of artists is retrieved as a single query. If "album artists only" then from the content of contributor_albums, or if "all artists" then from the content of contributor_tracks (so it's possible to include/exclude certain roles in the list). _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
