Is that normal no Album can choose in music section?

I can view the Album by click the three dot and select view album

Yes. You could try refreshing the metadata on your entire music library.

Hi, it's under the 3-dot menu for a library. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

Yes,it works, thanks for your help.

But I have another question, why the same album separate by artist? Can I group as one?

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.

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?

Technically the AA would be Various Artists and that would merge all the Album items into one album.

But you can add multiple AA's listing all Artists to all tracks.

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.
