keep various artist cds together?

[chinolofus]

is there a script or some other way that i can use to keep a various artist cd together when i browse under "artist". i have a bunch of various artist cds but they are mixed throughout.

To be considered part of the same album, tracks must have same AlbumTitle and AlbumArtist fields.

You can set these fields manually or use File->Maintain Library->Create multi-artist Albums.

What do you mean exactly?

The list of albums on left (above) is only suggestion.

For those that were already tagged you'll have to edit them manually.

a few cds i have for some reason show up in various artists. they are labled right though...so i dont know the problem.

For these albums, AlbumArtist must be the same as Artist.

For each album, select all its tracks, edit Properties, and change AlbumArtist.

Have a good day
