Wrong playing artist displayed from DJ-Mix/compilation

Hi! Sorry for dragging up an old thread here, but this seems to still be a problem so I wanted to bring it back up in the spotlight.

Right now I’m playing Regis - Manbait, the collection of Regis best work both as a producer and remixer, he is listed as album artist on all tracks, but the performing artist changes when there is is remix and not just his original work. Regis is the first artist displayed in the transport area, and therefore “main” artist, and that seems wrong. It also says Performed by Regis, when it is actually performed by another artist, but remixed by Regis. Is there a fix to this?

I keep looking up this and similar threads to see if there are any solutions to these issues… as dj compilations are still a mess in Roon. I try to retag the albums I play the most, where I add the DJ under credits with the weird credit: “Mix-DJ” to keep it out of the way but still beeing able to search it, but it’s a crappy solution after all these years.
