Incidentally - thanks, Fairy, for highlighting the setting about album
grouping. This has, indeed, turned off the Various Artists thing
altogether :) So I have actually got the best of both worlds now:
Setting COMPILATION tag fixes the problem if I want to use Varous
Artists.
Disabling album
glad things are working. Things went a bit nuts on my machine. No idea
why but Slimserver started hogging the cpu even after a reboot.
So I had to delete everything and reinstall. I'm running without using
MMM for now. I'll either do the tag trick or I might wait until they
fix it.

Cool - thanks for your reply, Fairy.
I've tried cahnging setting for Use MoodLogic (e.g. I turned it off)
and that reduced the number of duplicates - but only because ML seems
to ignore my own tags, and put what it thinks should be the tag
(which is also very annoying, but that's a post for a
Fixed? (Maybe?)
Been reading a few other threads on related issues and I followed a
suggestion to add a further tag to all MP3s which are from Various
Artist compilation albums. It's relatively straight-forward in my
case, since all individual discs are in folder names of artist -

I have the same problem, I was on 6.5 nightly before and now have the
mess shown here

to 6.3.1
Does anyone know how to fix this? I didn't get the various artist
albums duplicated before?
I am personally happy with grouping
ok, I've looked around the forums and the problem is fixed in 6.3.1
except for people like you and I who are using MusicMagic Mixer.
Perhaps someone can let us know when 6.3.2 is coming!
