What is the definition of a complete album in TAGs. You cannot edit it, so it is derived from other tags. I have a lot of albums which MC27 says there are incomplete but there are no (no. of tracks is not the issue?!!)
-
Complete Album follows some internal logic:
All tracks in same folder
All tracks has consecutive track#
There may be other rules, eg all tracks have same 'Album' title etc
-
Thx. But does somebody have the exact formula. It sees that all tracks being in one folder maybe one but not always (apparently)
-
Sometimes MC will declare an album as Incomplete if all the tracks are in the same folder, have the same [Album] Name but there are different artists listed in the [Album Artist] Tags.

According to the Wiki
https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Multiple_Artist_Albums
Complete Album is defined by
all tracks are of [Media Type]=Audio
all tracks have exactly the same, non-empty [Album] value
all tracks are in the same folder - i.e. have the same value for the [Filename (path)] field
all tracks have sequential [Track #] values starting at 1
all tracks have the same, or sequentially increasing [Disc #] values (empty and 1 are considered the same)
In View Schemes, an Album is defined by tracks having a common Album Artist or Album Artist (Auto) value.

Although seemingly related, the Complete Album tag and the determinization of what an Album is are based on different criteria.

Sorry I cannot find where this tag actually is - can you let the rest of us in on where this is?

It is under tag view. If not shown, hit Show All Tags and it should show up: name is Complete Album
