Managing music albums Box-Sets properly with KODI library feature
I've come across something I dont understand

what makes something a compilation rather than a boxset ?

I have a 4cd set called Anthems in Eden which i expected to become a boxset but it shows up as a compilation

the 4 cds are ripped to mp3 files and use ID3v2.4 tags only

each cd is in a seperate subfolder and each folder has its own folder.jpg

each track has an artist tag and the ALBUMARTIST tag is set to Various Artists

I have added DISCTOTAL and DISCSUBTITLE tags and when this didnt work I tried adding SETSUBTITLE but again it remains as a compilation

i have tried removing folder from the library and cleaning the library before re-inserting the folder and rescanning

Does the ALBUMARTIST tag being set to Various Artists take precedence and force it to be a compilation, rather than the boxset I would like it to be

here is screenshot of a sample track extended tags from mp3tag
