When you change most tags of a song in the player, it automatically overwrites the "Year / Release Year" tags, changing them from YYYY-MM-DD to YYYY.

In addition, it always adds MP3 ID V1 tags to the files.

I think this behaviour should be optional, just like when the Cover Picture is changed. In this case, the rest of the tags remain the same.

Is it possible to keep the rest of the tags untouched for all cases?

@apt1002 Left click shows / hides the program. If it doesn't, you have a bug in your system.

@jonas Nice to hear that. I think this is an interesting feature but it should be optional as most people prefer to sort by the first name of the artists. (Now I have to go all the way down to M to listen to Alanis, ehehehehheh!)

@CharAznableLoNZ I've just tried it.

No problem here if I just use tracks 1-9:

If I add tracks 10-12, then it goes into Various Artists. This happens because the "Album Artist" on the last track is CAKE instead of Cake.

Other than that, all is correct and works just fine on my system. (Strawberry Version 1.2.13 for Linux)

Since you say you're not using this last track, I don't really understand the problem... Sorry if this doesn't help. I tried...

It looks like Strawberry is taking in consideration ALL 12 files when syncing even though you only select 9 of them. If that's the case, correcting the Album Artist of Track 12 might solve the issue.

@CharAznableLoNZ That's strange... Unless you can share the files somehow, I can't understand what is happening. Do you use Soulseek, by any chance?

@olem Could you explain it better, please? I don't get what you're trying to do.

@CharAznableLoNZ I think this could be the problem:

You have both "Album Artist" and "ALBUM ARTIST" tags. Please delete the second (IN CAPS) and check if that solves the issue.

@CharAznableLoNZ said in Album Synced to Various Artists Folder Incorrectly.:

1.1.3 has the issue as well.

Can you open the folder with Kid3 and check if the Album-Artist is really the same in all tag versions? Or if there's a iTunes Compilation tag set in any of the files?

@knuxify It's still in development, 1.1.3 is the last release.

@JMinE-K I encountered that issue several times, since it was still called Clementine. One easy way is to remove all the folders from the Library.... then when it's empty, go back to the settings and re-add the folders. That usually does the trick.
