So I finally got my music library fixed up after transferring it to a new rig. I'm loving Amarok, still, but I can't quite figure this one out. I fixed the tags so all the featured artists are in the title tag and not the artist tag (iPods are a nuisance if you don't do this), but now I can't figure out why I have multiple entries for the same album. I noticed two songs with the same featured artist are grouped together. Also, the albums in question were first categorized under "Various Artists."
Any thoughts, ideas, or help is appreciated. Thanks! |

Which Amarok version?
Are the tags set correctly in the Artist and Album Artist fields?
Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ... |

Version 2.3.1. I don't see an album artist tag in Amarok. Is there a plug-in to expand on the current tags? Everything else is tagged correctly.

Oh my, 2.3.1 is very heavily outdated, that is about 3 years old now. I strongly suggest you upgrade to Amarok 2.6, released in August. Everything prior to 2.6 is not supported anymore.
FWIW: we just released 2.7 beta today and plan on releasing 2.7 final for Christmas.

Oh, well then... that explains a bit. I just did an upgrade from Lenny to Squeeze and assumed everything had updated properly. Silly me, making assumptions and junk. Thanks.

Well bugger, running the current stable build of Debian means that I'd have to get the backport of Amarok as well as KDE. I like Debian, but as an audiophile this does not sit well with me at all.
