The problem is fixed now in update 86. This update also contains a change to the "sort value conflict" message to provide more information about the conflicting sort values.

I installed the update. The original problem I noted does appear to be fixed. Thanks.

The sort value conflict messages now look like this:

Code:

Warning: sort value conflict for [artistIndex] filter Moshe Feldenkrais; value1=Feldenkrais, Moshe value2=Moshe Feldenkrais
Warning: sort value conflict for [artistIndex] filter Elizabeth Beringer; value1=Beringer, Elizabeth value2=Elizabeth Beringer
Warning: sort value conflict for [artistIndex] filter David Zemach-Bersin; value1=Zemach-Bersin, David value2=David Zemach-Bersin
Warning: sort value conflict for [artistIndex] filter Mark Reese; value1=Reese, Mark value2=Mark Reese

I figured out that the sort value conflicts result from tracks where the artist was reversed "Reese, Mark" and the AlbumArtist was not reversed "Mark Reese". Since I don't usually set the AlbumArtist at all, this slipped by me. The message might be more useful for troubleshooting if it gave the track title, or some other identifying information about which file generated the conflict. I had to hunt through my collection to try to find files that might be generating the problem.

Actually I am a bit puzzled by one thing. I have an album done by two people where each track is a solo and the artists alternate tracks. There are two albumartist tags, "Leri, Dennis" and "Kress, Carol". Then each file is individually artist tagged as either "Leri, Dennis" or "Kress, Carol" as appropriate. MinimServer reports:

Code:

Warning: conflicting ALBUMARTIST values ignored for file feldenkrais/Mid-Summers-Dream-Intensive-1/2.20.D5_04.DL.Hands.and.Feet.mp3
first conflicting value: Kress, Carol
second conflicting value: Leri, Dennis
Warning: conflicting ALBUMARTIST values ignored for file feldenkrais/Mid-Summers-Dream-Intensive-1/2.16.D4_04.CK.Breathing.mp3
first conflicting value: Kress, Carol
second conflicting value: Leri, Dennis
Warning: conflicting ALBUMARTIST values ignored for file feldenkrais/Mid-Summers-Dream-Intensive-1/1.04.D1_04.CK.Easing.the.Neck.mp3
first conflicting value: Kress, Carol
second conflicting value: Leri, Dennis

Is this how it's supposed to work? The behavior from the control point seems reasonable, namely that the artists appear and I can list the tracks associated with each, or I can select the album and see all the tracks. Is there some other way I ought to handle this?
