Hello !!! biggrin.gif

Many thanks for great plugin !!!

Im not well experienced user so i hope you could advise me...
How could i make in Chronflow to displya an album with more artist as one album (for example I have a compilation of 10 track with 10 differet artist - as the result I have The cover of that album ten times with different artists..) this situation comes to be extremely hard to use if I have HUGE compilation of many different songs huh.gif (f.e. 500 best Rock n Roll songs...) when I use only %album% I get right order but covers are displayed x-times the number of tracks in current album is... dry.gif

Could someone suggest some syntax to solve this problem ?? any help will be very appreciated !!! biggrin.gif

Why don't you ask in the respective thread?

Well, to your question:
I'm getting from your writing that you are not using %album artist% for various artist albums... if you do so, just group by e.g.
CODE
%album artist%|%date%|%album%

in chronflow preferences

Thanks for reply !!
And I apologize for starting new redundant thread..:-(

I did not expressed enough - I use %album artist%|%album% normally just it is implicite solution. but for every artist I get separate cover in cronflow - so i cam view some albums in x pieces one piece for each artist.. my aim is to eliminate all entries from certain album and make from it one just "various artist" album. Is it now clearer ???

I'm sorry, but I don't get it.
I mean the way I suggested does this... unless you didn't tagged your files correctly. Maybe my question wasn't clear referring to your tags. you have to use %album artist% in the files tag not just for sorting/grouping. because in that way foobar looks just for an entry in this fields and order and picks the one it finds tagged: album artist, artist, composer, performer

So if you have tagged:
CODE
%artist% > Pink Floyd
%album artist% > Various Artists
%album% > Best Rocksongs Ever

so with the titleformatting from my previous post you should get a single coverpicture which includes all songs from this "Best Rocksongs Ever" album...

... I'm bad in explaining things especially in english, sorry for that tongue.gif
