Description Pascal d'Hermilly 2006-05-13 14:41:18 UTC

Version:           1.3.7 (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When you have a song where artist or title is "[artist_1]/[title] feat. [artist_2]" amarok should recognise this and then you can find the song under artist_2 also :-)

That would make amarok rock even more :-)

This has been discussed several times. No easy way to determine the "conjunction" between artist_1 & artist_2.

You can use "feat", "f", "featuring", "with", etc, etc. 

Or all the above encased in () brackets.

The permutations are endless.

If you search through the bugs list, you'll find some discussion on potential solutions.

yeah, I've been thinking about that afterwards... The best thing would really be be if it was possible to use some sort of metatags so you could just label it both one artist and another.. But I suppose that would have to be done manually.

Comment 3 Peter C. Ndikuwera 2006-05-14 08:07:23 UTC

I believe most formats support the AlbumArtist tag, and we're hoping to use that in the next version (1.4.1?) of amaroK

Comment 4 Pascal d'Hermilly 2006-05-14 12:38:24 UTC

I never heard about the AlbumArtist tag, is it available in mp3 too?
