Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

There is Also Originating Artist in Details along Involved people and so on. It is just users preference. Thanks Peke, It's funny you mention “involved people” that's the whole reason I started using MediaMonkey from a friends recommendation because I never really cared too much about tags believe ...

Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

Album Artist is the method MediaMonkey uses. Artist is the performer of the track and Album Artist is artist the Album belongs to. Absolutely and I do realize that but that is very rare I have thousands of albums and in those rare cases I can adjust the album artist as needed otherwise I'll leave i...

Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

For decades I never have “album artist” filled it's always been blank and I've never had that problem if I have five albums named greatest hits the artist name is what separates those so that's not a problem? How does the album artist name stop it from being seen as one album? is there something I'm...

Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

how do I stop MM from automatically copying the artist name to the “album artist” box while editing properties of “multiple” files even though the “album artist” box in file properties is empty before you hit OK?

Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

Looks like the short answer would be you can't create a new topic if you're currently in a topic... that's why the only button you see at the top or bottom here is reply... That's a no brainer but in order to create a new topic you have to be in a category which is why I said maybe there's a differe...

Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

I guess it does work but I'm asking is that the normal way it works? First off it seems like most people don't use an iPhone for this.. (I use the pc for mediamonkey as there appears to be no app for iPhone yet..) Also I am new to forums and I'm not sure the difference between a category maybe vs th...

Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

Hi this is a silly question so far I've been replying to existing topics but I don't see how to post a new topic? I went to frequently asked questions and found this "How do I create a new topic or post a reply? To post a new topic in a forum, click "New Topic". " but I don't see...

Re: Auto replacing <album artist> with contents of <artist

Nice that somebody else agrees with me about not having duplicate values for album artist and artist.. You make a good case for "various artists" but I think a hybrid solution is better where "album artist" would be the primary artist name but with the word various in parentheses...

Re: Discogs Tagger 5.79 (Updated: 2021-01-06)

Hey, sorry for the late reply. Everything else is filled in the mp3 but not the additional artists (involved people)? Do you see the additional artists in the tagger window after you choose a release ? Do you set the box for "Save involved people"? No worries.. It was newbie user error..I...

Re: Discogs Tagger 5.79 (Updated: 2021-01-06)

Newbie here.. Sorry for the second reply I forgot to add…I also realize this information in the involved people box is used when searching through your media library which I didn't create one yet I wonder if that could be the cause of the issue do you have to have a media library established for thi...
