I am sorry to come back to this issue.
When I first had a problem with an album with 12 tracks split in 12 albums each one with the same cover, Scolex fixed the problem for me, entering in my computer.
But... he was so fast that I didn't learn how to do it by myself when the problem arises again.
And I have it (the same album) split again in 12 albums, but some more splitted in 2 or 3, each one with some tracks.
I didn't understand well why it happens (my problem), how to prevent it to happen and how to solve it when it happens.
Could someone help with simple guides to follow?
PS:The 12 album issue came back when I transferred my files to the NAS and accessed it from my PC.

Thanks Rod for your help. But I am still confused.
If I want to correct 12 split albums each one containing a track, witch one shall I pick to correct them all "in TAGs"? I am sorry but I will not understand.

Select ALL the tracks for the split album.  And follow steps outlined in post #2 from the referenced thread.

Attached is a screenshot that shows a single Artist and Album.

Album Artist should be empty, or one single value for all of the tracks.

Thank you, MrC:
It is now 8:30 AM in my country and I have just reed your reply.
I will try to solve the problem, but I didn't yet understand very well how to do it. You guys save words and I need a more prolix explanation.

I did not read the referenced post but what I did when I did a remote session with you was:
1 - select all files for the album
2 - press alt + tab to open tagging in the action window
3 - entered the (Multiple Artists) with parenthesis in the [Album Artist] field

If the [Album Artist] field is not visible click the little wrench in the action window header and select also show [Album Artist]

Sorry I did things too quick, force of habit and it doesn't feel quick to me because I have done it so many times, I guess the hand really is quicker than the eye.

Edit: If you have multiple (Multiple Artist) albums like I do you may want to enter (Multiple Artists) [Album] depending on how you group your albums.
Replace [Album] with the actual album name no brackets. I use the brackets to show it is a field just like you do for an expression.
