Help with format string
Greetings Shy

I need help with Album.displayFormat.

My tags example:

Album: Cecilia Bartoli: Queen of Baroque
Dispartist: Bartoli, Fasolis, Antonini
Dispartists: I Barocchisti, Il giardino Armonico
Dispalbum: Decca, 2020

I'd like to see album title string as "Cecilia Bartoli: Queen of Baroque (Bartoli, Fasolis, Antonini, I Barocchisti, Il giardino Armonico - Decca, 2020)"

Which value do I have to set for Album.displayFormat?

Thanks in advance!

RE: Help with format string
If all these tags will always be present for all albums, you can use this format string:

{$album^$dispartist$dispartists^ (^$dispalbum^ - ^)}

If some of these tags might not be present for some albums, you will get better results by using the following:

{$album^$dispartist$dispartists^ (^)$dispalbum^ - }

The second version would produce a slightly different string:

Cecilia Bartoli: Queen of Baroque (Bartoli, Fasolis, Antonini, I Barocchisti, Il giardino Armonico) - Decca, 2020
