Read my comments.
Did you try using the MusicIP web interface to find mixable tracks?
http://localhost:10002/server
This should show how many tracks are in MusicIP and how many are mixable.
There are various other buttons available for testing MusicIP on this screen.
-Every single file has a defined ARTISTSORT, ALBUMSORT, and ALBUMARTIST
tag, along with the expected standard title, artist, track, disc, etc.
No compilation tags exist
I don't understand - you have album artists and no compilations, but you talk
about compilation albums not being displayed
Some other questions that will help identify your problem:
1. What version of SqueezeCenter are you using?
2. Have you done a full rescan after playing with the SC library setting
options?
3. What type of file tags have you stored in your FLAC files? I'd recommend
that you try openening some
Also, browse into the album in the WebUI, and look at all of the information
that it lists on the screen. Also look at a specific song for song information.
Check that it really does say Album Artist: U2, for example.
