That is what their auto tagger tool does and what I have now done with all the relevant tracks in my collection. XBMC displays such tags separated with '/'. Since AS does not show multiple artists for this case, I'm guessing it is seeing the tags before XBMC re-writes the ';' to '/'. Please add ';' to the list of separators you mentioned?
I can add that. Is Music Brainz splitting with just the semicolon, or some space as well? i.e.
';' - no spaces
'; ' - trailing space
' ; ' - leading and trailing space
These are all different and would need to be dealt with separately.
Right now I don't believe I can query XBMC for the separators it is using. What I'd really like is for XBMC to pass me an array of artists for a given song. Then I wouldn't have to try and keep up with any updates to the way XBMC separates multiple artists. I just posted that request/question to the developer forum, so we'll see what happens.
