Title: Incomplete albums > (multiple artists) though only one artist present
Post by: jherbert on June 24, 2014, 11:44:03 pm

I am just editing new additions that should have the first listed artist in the "album artist auto" field instead of (multiple artists). It seems that mediacenter puts incomplete albums with a single artist in the (multiple artists) category. This is areal mess.

Can you please revert this OR give users a choice to use the old behaviour?
 
(3. Changed: Tracks with multiple artists will use (Multiple Artists) for Album Artist Auto.)

Matt has said that there will be changes in the next build: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=89953.msg617947#msg617947 (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=89953.msg617947#msg617947)
Though I'm not sure that they address your complaints.

Album Artist (auto) is being discussed here: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=89956.msg618041#msg618041 (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=89956.msg618041#msg618041)
Rather than simply reverting the changes, I think Album Artist (auto) can be improved so that it handles most use-cases cleanly, without requiring user intervention.
