Artist.replace={AlbumArtist}

these 2 lines did the trick.

Which is the most essential part of it. With 99% of other software you better make a collection write-protected to not end up with a totally corrupted summary of tracks.

I still run into a similar problem now.
Minim keeps 2 albums (same artist same albumtitle, different releases) separated from each other (another vital goody which is essential).
The bad thing, WMP mixes them all together again.
Am I right in assuming that I could adress this using the tagFormat by defining the .displayformat as it is now, but by also adding a .indexFormat?
Or must I go the hardware creating a customname for indexing which is a merger of rec.date, rel.date and albumtitle so that WMP won't get confused?
