However my problem is that it doesnt work for multi-disc releases that don't have disc subtitles because I only set the discsubtitle when the disc has a title rather than just when it is part of as multidisc. I can get it to work for these releases by enabling 'Always add Disc no to release titles' for multidisc albums, but then this breaks it for album with subtitles.

Adding (disc n) to the album title for a disc would set a default section title of "Disc n". If the disc also contains DISCSUBTITLE, the subtitle would overrride "Disc n" as the section title in the album contents listing, which I think is what you want. For example, these tags:

... on disc 1 ...
ALBUM=My album (disc 1)

... on disc 2 ...
ALBUM=My album (disc 2)
DISCSUBTITLE=My subtitle

... on disc 3 ...
ALBUM=My album (disc 3)

would produce the following:

>> Disc 1
... disc 1 tracks
>> My subtitle
... disc 2 tracks
>> Disc 3
... disc 3 tracks

Quote:I can maybe change something in Songkong but Im not sure I want to write 'Disc 1' to DISCSUBTITLE as I dont think that is actually a disc subtitle.

With the above approach, this would not be necessary.
