Indexing with ArtistSort

[bganthem]

Thank you, Simon. I'll amend the conflicted tags highlighted in the log as well as those mentioned in the previous post and other similar examples, and hope this puts my house in order. Until seeing in the log that conflcts arose from spelling discrepancies between the two fields (notably accents in foreign artist names) I hadn't appreciated that there was a strict and unique link between Artist and Artist Sort. Presumably this applies also to AlbumsArtistSort and ComposerSort too.

My aim had been to provide a single Artist Sort index reference point for an artist irrespective of the combination in which he/she was performing, with Artist displaying that combination in Album and Now Playing. I think the only way this is achievable is by using AlbumArtist as the single index reference point (as, no doubt, I should have done during the ripping process) and I will try that out.

I agree that your rewording of the log message is helpful. You might also consider noting in the User Guide the unique link of the Sort fields to their origin fields lest any other crackpots try to go down my route!

Thank you again for your help.
