Adding Compilation Albums to Library?
#1
Hello from a new user!

I have searched the forum but am a little unsure of the answer to my question.

I wish to add some music compilation CD's, such as the 'Now' series to my music library. At first I was seeing the album title being repeated many times in the library listing. I had completed all the mp3 tag entries, including setting the 'album artist' field to the actual artist. Also in my program, Tag & Rename, I set the 'compilation' flag to yes. The library listing was confused, showing the same album many times, once per artist.

After reading the forum and Google I have now set the 'album artist' to the phrase 'Various Artists' and all seems to be fine with the library listings.

I just wanted to ask if I have done this correctly, or will I end up with any problems in the future using this method?

Thank you,

Ardo.
