[QUOTE="Tim Whittington, post: 1077075, member: 124653"] I've discovered a handful (haven't manually checked all 600+) of albums are not being displayed in Album Artists (Index) view in MePo 1.4 and MePo 1.7. To be specific: when entering Album Artists (Index) view, the first letter of the album artist is shown. Selecting one of these letters (should) show all albums where the album artist starts with that letter. I do have the strip artist prefix on. In my case I have a bunch of Smashing Pumpkins albums which have (for unknown reasons, probably related to freedb): ARTIST: The Smashing Pumpkins ALBUM ARTIST: Smashing Pumpkins None of the (4) albums with this set of attributes is displayed in either Album Artists view or Album Artists (Index) view (after selecting S). The albums are in the music database, and are displayed in Albums view, and "Smashing Pumpkins, The" is in the list if I clone the Album Artists view to use the artist field instead of albumartist. The obvious thing to try will be to re-tag these files to make ARTIST and ALBUM ARTIST the same, but am I missing something else here about how MePo should be/is working or is this a bug? [/QUOTE]
