Select the file(s) and press shift-enter or right click and select properties.

Verify or re-enter the album artist field to the correct main artist, then press OK or enter.

All album files that have the same album artist (but can have different <artist>) will be grouped together under the <album artist> in the tree nodes.

MagicNodes is a script that you can find in the Scripts and Components forum.

:lol:... This was too hard for me to understand.

@ Teknojnky: How to set <Album Artist> to the main artist?

@ Lowlander: What is MagicNodes and how do I use them?

Thanks for all the answers!

You can use MagicNodes to create an Album Artist node. That way you can keep your Artist fields as they are.

Until such time in the future that MM will directly support multiple artists in the artist field, you can either manually add the additional artists as (featuring artist whoever) to the TRACK title and remove the additional artists out of the artist field, or leave them there and just ignore them.

Either way, I would make sure that the <album artist> field is properly set to the main artist so that the tracks are grouped correctly under that album artist.

Tag music from "Album Artist"?

Hello!

I've deleted all my music and started to rip and tag them again.
But to get better organization i've tried to tag the music files into one-and-one artist. Then I ran into a problem...

For example: Bryan Adams album "Anthology" has three or four songs with several artists. (See picture).

Is there any posibility to get theese songs tagged into the folder "Bryan Adams", but still keep the artists name?

I hoped you understand my question, and sorry for my bad English. :oops:
