"Album Artist" tag "grayed out? How to change?

RodrickGI and blgentry,

Thank you for all your help. 

Most recently I looked at my audio files and fixed what RodrickGI noted in the above post.  I understand how [Album Artist (auto)] works (neat feature), and haven't forced it.  Now all my multiple artist albums are cataloged correctly.  There was one that nearly "refused" to be corrected, but I eventually got it worked out.  While doing that I realized I had saved my entire audio collection in Music/[Artist] - [Name], so it was all in the same folder.  I got lots of practice with the intended function of RM&C correcting that.

I've ripped a few new CDs to my USB drive and used MR&C to ensure that I maintained my naming convention.  I also double checked how I am handling cover art and I think it is being saved in both a cover art folder but also in the tag information for each track.  Perhaps that's a different thread...

I think I have everything the way I want it on my first USB drive.  My library is neat and tidy now.  I am reading up on rsync now to create the backup on my other USB drive.  No GUI?  That is some old-school programming.  :)

RoderickGI:
All good to hear. Thanks for sharing your progress.
