i should also add to that...

follow me here for a second...

we established that TPE2 is NOT being classified as ALBUMARTIST by SC7.
i think thats a problem.

HOWEVER

you seem to be saying TPE2 is called "BAND" by SC7.

well, if it is, in that case, SC7 is NOT sorting by BAND either.

if TPE2 is "BAND" then it isn't sorting by BAND, its sorting by
ALBUMARTIST which is value that is blank for me in SC7s internal tags.

this is odd, b/c on the music library settings page, it says:

"List Albums by Band"

as one of the choices.

it goes on to say this in the info box:

"Albums that contain songs that are tagged with a band may be listed
under that band name or with the other artists for that album. The band
tag is also known as TPE2 and may appear as the "album artist" in some
software."

...so this means one of two things:

1. that the option is NOT meant to sort your music at all, but rather
just change the method (or data) it uses to show you who a given album
is by

OR

2. that the option is meant to sort AND change the method (or data) it
uses to show you who a given album is by.

***

personally, i think its supposed to be #2, but i'm not slim so i can't
say.  but if it is number 2, then the sorting part is broken for TPE2
users.

if on the other hand its #1, then just how am i supposed to get SC7 to
sort my albums properly (given that they are properly tagged)?
