Luke 36886 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Yes. You could try refreshing the metadata on your entire music library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianlam 10 Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 Yes,it works, thanks for your help. But I have another question, why the same album separate by artist? Can I group as one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36886 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 HI, Take a look at the embedded tags within the audio files. If these are supposed to be the same album, then they need to be tagged consistently with the same album value as well as albumartist. This is the big change from 4.5 to 4.6, that the embedded album tags are now used. That means that just putting tracks together in a folder doesn't make them an album anymore.

brianlam 10 Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 Thanks for your quick reply. I find two songs only artist and album artist are different, so, one album only can have one artist? or I can do something to make it as one album?

Happy2Play 8144 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Technically the AA would be Various Artists and that would merge all the Album items into one album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8144 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 But you can add multiple AA's listing all Artists to all tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The artist value can be different for each track, but the album artist and album values need to be consistent in order for them to be in the same album.
