AlbumArtist misses artists

[simbun]

I used Emby for years for movies, but the last time I looked at it for music it relied heavily on musicbrainz id's for defining albums. If you have musicbrainz id's (specifically ones that identify the album e.g. musicbrainz_albumid) in your tags then you should be able to do something similar to what I described here.

Assuming you have musicbrainz_albumid:

Code:

aliasTags: AlbumArtist:inAlbumArtist, MusicBrainz_AlbumID:AlbumArtist
indexTags: inAlbumArtist:Album Artist
tagFormat: AlbumArtist.displayFormat={$inAlbumArtist}

The only problem I can see is that you'll essentially lose the Artist index, as it combines track artist and album artist and indexFormat doesn't seem to apply to the AlbumArtist index (I assume because it's a non-standard index) so you'll see the musicbrainz_albumid's.
