Back in 0.8 I could select Properties on some files, and then use \ to seperate multiple values. When done on FLAC files, fb2k would then create the field several times (one per line), as intended.

How is this done in 0.9.4? Multi value tags are read as seperated by semi colon. Whenever I try to edit them, either by seperating by ;, \ or linefeed, everything is saved in a single multiline field instead of several fields with one line each.

The separator for multivalued field in 0.9 is ;. As long as you defined field A is a multivalued field in Preferences -> Advance and use ; as separator you will get multivalued display as value1, value2[,...]. Beware that the ; change to , to indicate that it's multivalued.

Thanks, works like a charm after adding my fields to the list.

Okay then, now how will multitagged files display in other players?

Main things that I found and sort of get on my nerves:

1. using %artist% tag on albumart thingies (output is artist1, artist2, etc)

2. LastFM scrobbler lists only the 1st artist on the list - which results in completely inaccurate data.

3. Album List Panel - can't say exactly when, but it currently treats multi artists as artist1, artist2 instead of the expected separate artists (I think that's the worst thing for me).

My main issue with these cases is not just the mere inaccuracy of this, but the importance of the order of entries.
I thought that the whole point of having a multi-tag was being able to treat each entry as one.

Please read about branching expressions.

The default album list views use this kind of syntax. In your own ones, replace %artist% by %<artist>%.

I made a feature request to allow for formatiing strings about a month ago but no response. Perhaps you could chime in on this.

Brilliantly simple. Thanks.
Will this also work for foo_ui_albumart and/or PrettyPopup?
