Description Erik Hetzner 2003-10-12 21:00:40 UTC
According the the id3v2 standard, if multiple artists are responsible for,
say, the TPE1 tag (main artist), their names are to be seperated by slashes
(/). Rhythmbox should support this by indexing each artist seperately. Ie,
if  an mp3s TPE1 tag is "Lee Perry/King Tubby" than those two should be
seperated and the track listed under both "Lee Perry" and "King Tubby", not
under the nonexistant artists "Lee Perry/King Tubby" as is the case currently.

Also, perhaps TPE2, 3, and 4 tags should be displayed. These are additional
artists (band, conductor, etc.) These could be added to the Artist browsing
frame (sorry, I don't know the correct terminology) as well.

Erik Hetzner

PS: Thanks for the slick program.
