You're right. I was mentioning what I was doing because only by setting Compilation=0 or 1 on every track (as a matter of practice) was I able to get what I expected out of LMS. In other words, the expected behavior never worked as expected so I forced compilation tags including Compilation=0. It doesn't mean it wouldn't work without Compilation tags, but it wouldn't work for 100% of my files including places where I thought it should work. It became easier in practice to just automatically tag files with the Compilation=0 tag and then adjust it to 1 when it's appropriate. By the way, I don't use ID3 tags (no mp3 files) in my system, which was largely driven by issues with the TCMP and the TPE2 (Band/Album Artist) tags in LMS and other software. The practice above was also driven by a desire for software outside of LMS to behave consistently with LMS. It was even worse when some software would interpret an album as a compilation while a different one wouldn't. Let alone that some software pays no attention to the compilation tags (or album artist for that matter). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ emalvick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35382 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109180 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
