Description Sebastien Bacher 2007-05-17 17:35:19 UTC
The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sound-juicer/+bug/110301

"Binary package hint: sound-juicer

When reading information from musicbrainz, sound-juicer puts the artist of the first track into the "album artist" field.

This means that all the files get named incorrectly if they have the disc artist name in them, although they are tagged properly.

bug #5645 means that its impossible to correct the disc artist without re-entering artists for every track.
...
I use feisty and gutsy, on different machines.

Using the artist of the first track for the album artist is wrong, because they are not necessarily the same.

For example: http://musicbrainz.org/release/7fab9404-1897-48d0-8172-cd46a52cf0cb.html

This album has the album artist "Eric Serra and Julien Schultheis". But Sound-Juicer uses the artist from the first track, "Jean Reno & Michel Muller" for the album artist.
...
> What version of Ubuntu do you use? Does it happen with several disks? Does it work correctly with other applications? Are you sure that's not that disk having no "album artist" information?
...
This is the only disk I've seen it with; I don't have a whole lot of discs with a different album artist vs. track artists.

I know of no other applications that read mb data, other than picard; picard handles this fine. And yes, if you follow the link I posted, you can see that the disk does have "album artist" information: "Eric Serra and Julien Schultheis" as stated in my previous comment."

Sounds like a duplicate of Bug 393707 – SJ doesn't retrieve correct release artist
