ACC performes the following actions to determine if an album is a compilation album: 1. retrieve all track artist of an album 2. Sort them by name and count every occurence 3. The unique track artist string that performes more than half of the tracks is considered the album artist. If there is no artist performing more than half of the tracks the album is considered a compilation album. I could't think of a better algorithm yet since the album compilation bit in the database is totally useless (if there is one guest artist performing on only one track, the whole album is considered a compilation album). -- SilverRS8 Author of -'AlbumCatalogCreator' (http://www.vanholt.nl/acc/acc.htm)- for SqueezeCenter & SlimServer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SilverRS8's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12818 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48096 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
