To recap, it seems that LMS is taking album definition (grouping songs by album) from elements of the filename, and not just from the album name associated with the song in tags. This is an illustration of the situation, and a demonstration of the fix (which is just removing the initial filename structure and replacing it with the track number). Behold:
38830 The screenshot above (using the LMS webpage rather than the display on my mobile) shows the album structure in New Music. Note that most albums in the Transatlantic Sessions series are represented by a single entry, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, but those tagged as Transatlantic Sessions 6 have multiple entries; each of these entries have songs from a particular episode; all have the same album name specified. 38831 After I modified the filenames to take out the episode reference (all in the form of TS6-X - ), where X is the episode, all the tracks are now included in a single listing for the album Transatlantic Sessions 6. 38832 This is the track information BEFORE the change to the filename. Note the shaded area which is the path to the file, including the filename. It shows "TS 6-6 - " at the beginning of the filename. 38833 This is the file information after the "TS 6-6 -" was replaced with the track number "35". Nothing else was changed, and in particular no tags were changed. When done for all tracks, this resulted in all the tracks being included in a single specified album.
