I have discussed the bug with the guys at Auralic and been told that it should be taken care of with the next version of DS Lightning.

Thanks, this is good news.

Following your suggestions (and the ones of other members of the forum)

I have looked back through my responses to this thread and I don't believe I suggested that you make this change. The best approach is to use [Disc n] tagging and use a control point point that supports this correctly.

Quote: I have changed slightly the way I tag multiple discs and instead of using the format Album Name (Disc n) I changed it into Album Name, Disc n. Now I can see all of the separate discs. However, they do not show up progressively in Lightning DS.

For example, when I sort/display by genre I would see

Album A
Album B, Disc 1
Album C
Album D
Album B, Disc 2

I have noted that this is due to the second set of names (other than Artist) which are tagged. Is there any way to correct for this or, if not, how could I prevent albums to be indexed using also additional artist names? I do not normally use or report tags other than the main artist of the album. However, perhaps using dbPoweramp those names (including composer etc.) are included automatically. Any suggestions on how to deal with the issue above?

Thanks in advance.

Are you getting this sort order in Kinsky as well as Lightning DS?

If you are getting this sort order in Kinsky, this might be because you are using the MinimServer option Album.sortTags={Artist, Album} and the artist name for Album B, Disc 2 is different from the artist name for Album B, Disc 1. You could fix this by tagging both Album B, Disc 1 and Album B, Disc 2 with the same AlbumArtist tag while leaving the Artist tags as they are currently.

If you not getting this sort order in Kinsky, this is a problem with how Lightning DS is doing the sorting and you will need to contact Auralic for advice on how to fix it.
