Feature or Help Request: Multiple Albums for a song
« on: April 28, 2004, 12:29:51 am »
Hey there,

I'm note sure of the correct wording for this so it may already exist or someone may have asked for it but here goes:

Is it possible to have a single song file that has more than one album tag attached to it.  I have recorded all my CD collection onto my PC and like to listen to the recordings in the order they were on CD.  This becomes a problem when I record a compilation CD as many of my songs are now doubled up wasting disk space.  

I have created playlists for each album in the past but this got very tedious very quickly.

Cheers

Bob

This has been requested before.

I believe it is on the To Do list but necessarily being worked on now.

I'm not speaking for J River of course, just my guess from what I've read...

You can do some searches on the boards and you should find some threads that discuss this.

I just came here to post the exact same question/request, after looking at my library and viewing all of the duplicates from multiple albums.  This would be a very helpful function.

That's not the point.  I just added my 5th harddrive, a SATA 270 GB, which brought me up to 750 GB.  So I'm not hurting for harddrive space.  I still agree with  Bob that it would be a nice feature.

Create a new custom, semicolon delimited field and use it in all your view schemes/smartlists/playlists instead of the normal album field.
