After the scan phase tags are irrelevant. At scan time LMS adds a Contributor type that equates to Album Artist either when it finds a relevant tag or where there is no such tags but all tracks of an album are by the same artist.

I can sort of understand its reasoning - as the list is of album-artists, and then you see the albums that album-artist appears on. The only way I think that you can resolve this is to create a new 'AlbumArtist' browse mode. If you go to server settings, 'Additional Browse Modes' you can define a new mode and set the 'Contributor Roles' to ALBUMARTIST, and 'Browse By' to 'Artists' *Material debug:* 1.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Album Artist list shows albums from compilations
I have a feeling there is nothing you can do about this. I can see it could be annoying if you have a lot of compilations.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Album Artist list shows albums from compilations
I am using Logitech Media Server after a long many years. I was using Plex and the transcoding from lossless to lossy put me off but the transmission was very reliable. Tried LMS and it was spectacular. I have ALBUM ARTIST menu which shows albums under a certain artist. But i do not want it to show albums where the artist is part of a compilation. For example: Looking under Album Artist, there is a band called "10cc" and under it are all the albums listed but also an album called "Slow Rock Collection" shows up with only their 1 song under that albums. How can I ensure only albums from the artists are shown and not compilations. FYI, all my compilations have "ITUNESCOMPILATION", COMP" and "COMPILATION" = 1 Latest version: LMS 8+ LMS installed on latest Windows 10 and using iPeng to access on iPad HerculePirate's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12616 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115646 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
