Artist Tag If No AlbumArtist Tag?

[Rasmussen]

Here's my album display format tag:

Code:

Album.displayFormat={$albumartist^^ / ^$album^$date^ (^)}

Question: Is it possible to re-write this so that MinimServer includes the Artist tag if (and only if) there is no AlbumArtist tag?

TIA

You can use the tagValue property to do this.

1) Add a new tag to itemTags, for example ArtistFormat
2) Set tagValue to ArtistFormat.default={AlbumArtist, Artist}
3) Change your tagFormat settting to: Album.displayFormat={$artistformat^^ / $album^$date^ (^)}

Note the slight change to your format string to improve the formatting for albums with mutliple artists.
