Advice Needed - Compilation albums

[mike (Mike Fass)]

What is the best way to tag compilations so that the tracks have their own information as to artist etc but so they appear in a cohesive album?

Check the file tags to make sure all the files have:

• Consistent sensible track and media numbers, meaning tracks 1-17, and disc 1 of 2 (or 1 of 4, or whatever)
• The same Album tag
• The same Album Artist tag (if it’s a compilation with more than one artist, this should be Various Artists)

If you find a compilation that’s not grouping properly, make the needed changes in your tags, and then rescan the files if the changes don’t get picked up automatically.
