RE: Listing multidisc albums with different composers
Okay, I got it working but ONLY if there are multiple entries (instead of a single consistent one) in the disc's ARTIST (Artist Name in Foobar2000) field. I.e., at least one track needs to have a different ARTIST value than the rest on the disc.

Sounds strange but I did confirm this by changing the ARTIST of one track on the disc that was shown listed separately in the screenshot in reply #3. Now when none of the discs have a single consistent ARTIST value, all discs are grouped properly under the same library entry. And also confirming what you wrote, that ALBUMARTIST needs to be one single value across all the discs.

Just wondering if it's got something to do with the way I've set MinimServer to display these tags. What I could do, is just add a blank space at the end of one track's ARTIST metadata, if the disc only has a single ARTIST value. But it feels like a hack. EDIT: Hmm, looks like I have "Ronald Brautigam, fortepiano" as the only ARTIST in his 10 disc Beethoven set and it's displaying properly so I'm at my wits end here.
