Hey guys,

Returning to streaming music after a bit of an absence involving moving
half way around the world for work...

I recently decided to retag my FLAC library (about 12.000 tracks). All
going well (using MP3TAG) until I got to Compilations. I wanted to tag
these albums so that they appear in the artists view under "V" as
"Various Artists" with the artist for each song retained and displayed
on the SB3 screen. I do not want the albums or songs appearing in the
individual artists (this is not a must - flexible).

I tagged these albums as follows:
- %artist% - retained for each track
- %artistsort% - "Various Artists"
- %albumartist%, %albumartistsort% - blank

On the server side settings are as follow:
- Group compilation albums together
- List albums by band
- TPE2 as albumartist

This has resulted in Various Artists appearing both at the very top of
Artists (before "A") and under "V". Although this is not a problem,
after the Various Artists entry in "V" all the artists that exist in any
compilation album are listed alphabetically (and these do not appear
anywhere else under Artists). This is really upsetting me as I have no
idea how to fix it.

If anyone can help fixing it (as well any advice regarding tagging such
albums) I would be very grateful.
