[slim] No Album problem

2010-02-01 Thread MillmoorRon
I have a lot of songs that are not actually part of an album - EPs, singles, session tracks, freebies from band's sites, etc - so they have a blank album tag. Squeezebox server doesn't seem to handle this very well! When browsing by artist (mostly with iPeng these days) I then get a 'No Album'

Unexpected results following the rescan though! Even though tracks are tagged with same 'album' tag they still show up as seperate albums in Slimserver. It seems it splits them up if they are in different sub-folders - which most of them are. I was hoping for just one folder of non-album tracks
