Hi,
That is normal. both Album and Album Artist needs to be same (unknown is counted as different) in order to be listed as one album.
I can easily replicate your behavior if I delete Album Artist from one tracks on album and copy it to device with MMA, so like you said correcting Album artist and recopy fixes the issue.
Understood. So basically I need to make sure that my library on MMW is as clean and polished and consistent as possible, and THEN do the sync.
As sarcastic as that sounded, I promise no sarcasm here. iTunes already effed over my library at the moment with regards to album art, so right now, I'm just doing other forms of spring cleaning in the midst of re-associating, or finding album art.
Actually, I'd like to ask just to clarify - you said "if I delete Album Artist." Does that imply that the Album Artist tag should not be empty? Like, write down even VA or something else? I do have quite a few compilation albums that have songs from all kinds of artists.
