I have quite a lot of compilation and mix albums. I think mine display
ok so I'll check my SqueezeCenter settings later.

My approach with tagging is to have the same ALBUMARTIST tag across all
the tracks if I want to record the fact that the album was compiled (or
mixed) by a particular person while also having the ARTIST tag for each
individual track set to the name of that particular artist. In doing
that I think it is possible to search by either ALBUMARTIST or
ARTIST...

If I don't want to search by the compiler/mixer then I just leave the
ALBUMARTIST blank.

I don't use the COMPILATION tag at all for no reason other than I
associate it with iTunes and kinda have an aversion to that piece of
software :-)

I wouldn't say I'm any kind of expert in tagging so don't read too much
into any of what I've said. I've just written this down because it seems
more interesting than doing work right now ;-)
