Recently Ive been ripping and tagging my entire music collection to really start using my Squeezebox. Now all 12.000+ music files are tip-top tagged and maintained (with help of MediaMonkey & mp3tag) Im wondering why Squeezebox displays my music collection different then what I want and am used to in MediaMonkey.
The situation: - All music files are tagged with idv2 tags - All music files have an artist tag - All albums have an album artist (which is btw identical to the tag ensemble; default behaviour of MediaMonkey) - All collection albums are tagged with compilation=1and itunescompilation=1 (I dont yet use Itunes, but in case Im going to load my iPod with these music file) - Squeezebox is configured to: o Compilations = Group compilation albums together o List albums by band o Treat TPE2 MP3 tag as Album Artist I would therefore expect to have all Squeezebox show all unique album artist in the artist view and have Various Artists show all albums tagged with compilation. Squeezebox however also displays some individual artists in the artists view: mostly, if not all, artists of music files where the artist is the artists of all music files on the album. An example: Album: albumname Album artist: artist1 1: title x; artist: artist1 & artist2 2: title x; artist: artist1 & artist2 3: title x; artist: artist1 & artist2 4: title x; artist: artist1 & artist2 5: title x; artist: artist1 & artist2 6: title x; artist: artist1 & artist2 7: title x; artist: artist1 & artist2 In this case I would like to only have artist1 in the artist view, Squeezebox however displays artist1 & artist2. Similar albums which are not marked as a compilation but which have different artists for each title and still shows as compilation. Even if I have manually defined an album artist for these cds. Mostly the name of the DJ. How can I therefore configure Squeezebox to display only the album artist in the artist view? Is this possible by default, or with help of some modifications?? -- ckh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ckh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22943 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60790
