if you are using the newest EAC, you should see: 1.CD Title 2.CD Artist 3.CD Performer which translates to: 1.album name 2.track artist name (it puts "Various" or similar if its a comp) 3.albumartist works well for me. EAC does not add explicit comp tags afaik. pqpq;678161 Wrote: > The clear/rescan solution is producing very inconsistent results.
