Hello,
I am trying to make some order with my music. As most of my UPnP controllers (Kinsky Desktop for Linn, Songbook, etc)
doesn't work correctly with the albumArtist tag I want to use it in other, than default (I think) way - instead of storing in it
information about artist, who released the album - information about performers. It works quite good, but with one exception :
If there are more performers than 1 (real example : Keith Jarrett Trio - stored in Artist tag, Keith Jarrett; Gary Peacock; Jack Dejohnette - stored in albumArtist) then it seems that Twonky sees (and sends to its clients) only the last value (in this
example it is Jack Dejohnette).
Is there any workaround for this issue ?
regards
freshman

Re: albumArtist tag - multiple values
I dont know if it supports multi-value there or not
It might, not sure
If it does, I remember there talk here about delimeter issues
where one standard is ;
and another is ,
and I know twonky is using ,
so why not make a test file and edit the albumArtist tag
with "test,test2,test3" and see what twonly shows
as I know that for the Genre tag, I have to use , to get multi-value returns

Re: albumArtist tag - multiple values
Hello,
No - it doesn't work in the way I expect.
What I need is to split the performers into single names,i.e. - if I have Keith J, Gary P and Jack D as a performers
(stored in albumArtist) then I want to see three different performers and next to them album and tracks, where they appear.
In other words, using our example :
They released "Standards vol. 1" album
I see this album in the folder "Keith Jarrett Trio", when I search using ARTIST/ALBUM
I want to see THREE these albums in PERFORMERS folder :
- one of them under the node of Keith J
- again, the same album under the node of Gary P
- and again the same album under the node of Jack D
This is what I try to do
Currently I do not see Keith J and Gary P at all as a PERFORMERS (i,e, albumArtist).
I see only Jack D - as He's placed as the last in the list of albumArtist values (Keith J; Gary P; Jack D)

Re: albumArtist tag - multiple values
Like I said I wasnt sure if it supported multi-value for that field
From what you did it doesn't look like it does either
I went ahead and did some test with buildon='upnp:albumArtist'
and tried different ways to see if I could get back the multi-values
but no luck with any of the delimeters that I tried
