[QUOTE="locka, post: 539563, member: 68580"] guys I'm a bit lost with my music and getting my views right. I currently have my mp3's stored on my server in the following way artist\album\track. Each album folder has album cover and mp3 play-list file plus all the tracks. The tracks contain just the name the track number is stored in mp3 tags only. The view which shows them up in mp as they would like is shares and groups them properly. However this does not show me cover-art but rather a generic image. If I change the view to say album-artist they show up fine. As they do with other views. Problem is when I have Album-artist view selected mp interpreters wrongly group of tracks. One of the issue is that if an artist has a song in a compilation album it decide to group that album and it's respective song with the artist rather than leaving compilation album on it own.. E.g. I have 2 ah-ha albums they would be in the right place but it then it also adds an 80's album + cover. Linking in the the one ah-ha track for that album. I would rather that compilations albums came under the banner various artist. I have looked at other post can not find out if either share view can show the album cover or if I can modify one of the other views to have the music group correctly but with the album artwork. Any ideas would be much appreciated:thx: [/QUOTE]
