[Desktop-packages] [Bug 776714] Re: Compilation artists should not be listed in artists view separately
That's really bad. There should be a simple config file to adjust which tag is used for each view. But, well, the tag "albumartistsort" for the album and "artistsort" for the single track artist exactly do what you and the librarian are worried about - listing "Mike Oldfield" as "Oldfield, Mike" and "The Beatles" as "Beatles, The" "The Drunken Sailors" as "Drunken Sailors, The"... Which still doesn't solve the capital letter issue... BTW: If you autotag with the Musicbrainz Database these aren't created automatically but edited by users. Check out the Musicbrainz Picard program - it's free and does all that (heavily customizable by settings and plugins)... yeah, you probably knew about it anyway, I get a bit offtopic here in an official bug report... (but who care's... it's not maintained anyway...)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 776714] Re: Compilation artists should not be listed in artists view separately
The fix is very simple: Banshee just has to list artists NOT by the "artist" tag, but by the "albumartist" tag. That's exactly why this tag exists... alternativly "albumartistsort" gives the list as the sorted list as used by librarians - both easy to use, easy to implement If no one wants to change the default behaviour just add an option in which every user can choose or even configure the way the different views rely on standard tags. For information on tags as most people use them checkout the "musicbrainz.org" project. Also I recommend using lollypop, clementine, quodlibet or any other music player/organizer out there - banshee is simply not up to date and seems to be neglected, 2.6.2 is a two year old bugfix release... cheers, p. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to banshee in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776714 Title: Compilation artists should not be listed in artists view separately Status in banshee package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: banshee This might be a part of other usability improvement request, but I had not found an explicit bug report for this.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 253167] Re: Rhythmbox sort by "Album Artist" for guest/compilations
No bumping please, no complaining for heavens sake , no asking nicely - how dare you! Well 7 years of an open bug is not fixed because the devs do not understand the problem... Sure they have any right to not do anything about it. That's why I ditched rhythmbox years ago, just came around to check whether anything happens here... lol... I guessed so. Whatever the "upstream" procedure is here - obviously it doesn't help anyone. Great system of developing! And that's why we can't have nice things. You devs have done a great job 10 years ago, since then..., meh... not so much...

Annoying to see that still nobody cares! It's been 5 years now with this bug with no intent to change it by the devs - I don't use rhythmbox anymore for two years now. I cannot understand the decision by Canonical to still feature this program: it is unflexible, not lightweight in any way, buggy, not well maintained and devs don't even care to listen to their users! I will suggest in the Ubuntu boards to drop the program again and replace it with clementine or guayadeque.

Thx for your post! sadly I've done the same thing: - completely removed all hplip related packages - deleted cached deb-files in the /var/cache/apt-get folder - installed the repo version 3.12.6 - used dpkg to install the @hotzeplot file (will try with gdebi but should be the same) - works great!

...this could be fixed by putting some text into Compilation album artist field No it won't help. I write tags to the files, I tag album artist of the Kill Bill soundtrack as Various Artists or as Kill Bill artist collection (whatever ...). I make sure I saved the changes: Still I get a list in the browser view left of the album grid including artists like[dialogue], Nancy Sinatra and so forth I have only ONE album in my collection and the browser view still shows TWELVE entries! That is still annoying and I said it elsewhere and utter it here again: If someone doesn't grasp the problem here please check out Itunes behaviour because it's very well thought through and the quasi standard people expect to be at least enabled to list AND browse their music collection ... I really don't get why this is such a big deal: It's just about making the browser view optional as the setting for the folder hierarchy already does ... - the folder hierarchy setting offers albunartist/album so PLZ add a setting option browser view where users can CHOOSE their preferred browser behaviour. using banshee 2.3.6 still no change on the issue.
