[QUOTE="rtv, post: 101750, member: 12309"] Yes, you need to use "grouping" for that. Have a look at the artist view and its grouping and do the same for the album view. MP relies on correct tags in many ways better get them sorted ;) There are lots of easy tools to add correct ID3-Tags based on your directory structure and / or filename to your files. It's worth the 2 hours of effort ;) Just delete your music database would be enough. When starting the config after this a clean DB will be created. Finally scan again from the config. In your special case you might need to enable the explorer option to view all files and check each album for wrong thumbs before + delete all contents of the thumbs\Music\* subdirectories. After "grouping" this will be fast, too MP doesn't use the share's files after scanning to gain performance. Just put them into the thumbs\music\artist subdirectory. (The automatically fetched ones from last.fm/amazon also go there. [/QUOTE]
