[QUOTE="audioqueso, post: 483387, member: 96151"] I do have each album in its own folder. And I did check "Treat tracks in an individual folder as album"... but it still splits it up. I tried viewing by Genre, by AlbumArtist, by Artists, but it still shows a listing for every artist. I've double checked that every file had a tag showing the same album name, and it does. I've doubled checked that the only things different in the tags are the artists and track title. Yes, if I list by Artists, AlbumArtists, Genre, Years, whatever, I get a listing for every artists. So with about 15 different artists on the album, it shows 15 different listings, and then on each of those 15 listings, it shows the album name. And why would Genre>Artist - Album be so difficult? I don't understand why you say it will be huge? It would already be sorted by genre. It would be no different than Genre>Artists>Album... just not categorized after Genre>Artist. Another way to look at it is by Genre>alphabetical order, inside of Genre>Artist>Album. This way, if you click on a particular genre, it will show all listings under that in alphabetical order. So that if I have the folder named Eagles - Hell Freezes Over, then when I sort by Genre, I click on Rock, then it shows all my listings and I see Eagle - Hell Freezes Over. With over 100 albums that are Various Artists, I really wouldn't choose this path of having all the artists split. It would be very annoying to have 100+ compilation artists split all over the place. I'll keep looking at this though. [/QUOTE]
