In both cases ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4 TCMP.......1 had been written in the header. The same as seen in your attached image.

Maybe we'll have to wait for @simoncn on this. It may be that he'll need you to upload the file to him, because it seems like it should work.

For all audio files only the tag "ARTIST" was used .
"ALBUMARTIST" is only present in the compilations and there it is always "Various Artists".
So far I have had no problems with this. What problems are to be expected?
In the case of collaborations with two or more artists, I have solved the problem by placing the "main artist" in the "ARTIST" tag and the other artist(s) in the "TITLE" tag as ".... (feat. xxx)".

I only use AlbumArtist on my setup (for browsing, obviously they're tagged correctly), but from the online help it sounds like you wouldn't see the artists that were tagged in the Artist field where you have AlbumArtist='Various Artists'.

By the way, did you have a look at the modified album sort and does that work for you?
