Album Artists view broken for compilations

Post by joemiii »

EG When in Album Artists view, an album with ALBUMARTIST=Various and with ARTIST= many per-track different values, the album gets attributed to one of the track ARTIST values and not to the string "Various" as one would expect.

Not really related, but why can we select Artist sub view in Genre view but are not offered Album Artist as a sub view? This capability is essential if Album Artist viewing is to be useful.

Thanks.

Which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey are you using? I see no such thing on 5.0.1.2433 (but it's a large Library so I checked some random Artists I know are on Various Artists Albums. Also what View and which panels are you using?

Are you asking for sub-node of Artists, instead of Albums in the Media Tree?
