Description Oliver Willemse 2009-10-23 10:51:31 UTC 
I use Filesystem Organization with Banshee 1.5.1 in the following manner: 
Artist/Artist - Title as layout.

I found with the 1.5.1 release, Banshee will rename files from a compilation album, the file name will be changed to the Compilation Album Artist name rather than the track artist. Which will lead to renaming of a file to something like this: 
Various Artists/Various Artists - Happy Song.ogg

I would suggest that it would be better to name files after the track artist rather than the Compilation Album Artist, or at least give an option to choose between the two.
