Hi,
currently, Amarok seems to support the TPE2 frame nicely with files that are in
the collection, but if you add the file from the filebrowser, it will set
"Artist" to TPE2.
I am using that tag a lot - imho it is a great solution for compilations, ie.
set AlbumArtist to "VA" for all tracks on a compilation, and set "Artist" for
each track individually. The Album will then show up as one Album with Artist
"VA", but if you play a track it shows the tracks's artist. This works fine
with all players I tried with my collection. Maybe this could be considered as
an option to the current solution for compilations.
I am not sure whether or not the attached patch works (maybe I am missing
something) - but setting the Artist to the value of TPE2 can't be right.
Cheers-
Stefan
