Guess I got it fixed.
Patch for 7.4 is in 'Bug 10583'
(http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10583).
Id be happy to get some testing and feedback on this change,
especially from people who use the MusicBrainz data
(MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUM_ID), FLAC files, and probably who dont store all
their
In SC7.4-24817, still the same bug as originally decribed: SC -requires-
dumb stuff like "Disc #1 of 1" to be able to group VA compilations (that
are not in the same folder) correctly.

They are actually album ids since MB tends to use only one entry for
"identical" re-releases. This -might- pose a problem for collectors
that collect several releases of the "same" album, I must admit
(thinking of old Blues and Jazz records). The real "obscure" releases

Really?
Some of my albums are in formats not supported by MusicIP. I don't archive

Yes, the kludge would kind of work, except unless you always add it to all
albums, you could be caught out with two albums that have the same name.

OT, but Take That's album was called "The Circus" and it's pretty good

All artists contribute to music in some way (various roles). Some are the
primary performers on songs (artist role for normal albums), some are

btw, if all songs on a disc are in one dir, then my exp is if they

I think I have found some more faults regarding the aggregation of

7.3.2-24523 (both Windows).
I was wondering why very few of my VA albums were shown as »albums«,
