I changed the two settings you suggested (the third one is not present here) and ran VACUUM on the imgproxy.db (which took around an hour). What's the file's size now? BTW: in 7.9 auto_vacuum should be on by default. But it seems this doesn't work. I'll have to investigate this further. --

I might try that, although that doesn't seem logical. I wouldn't expect an artist with an added contributor role or 'ARTIST' to appear among the album artists. I was thinking that possibly having 'Various Artists' as the ALBUMARTIST for a non-compilation might do the trick. Basically, by changing

But under 'Album Arstists', 'Various Artists' appears nowhere. :( Considering that it was included in an ALBUMARTIST tag, I find that surprising. Is it being explicitly excluded from this list for some reason? Is there a bug report for this? -- Michael

How about... sort the page bar the same way we sort the items? Morgan Ågren appears in the artist list, half way through the artists beginning with A. The issue is that there could be several artists beginning with Å appearing in the artists list, and they would not be sorted together, as it
