Multi disc album oddity
#1
I have added my digital albums into the Music Library via an SMB share. For the most part everything is fine but I have four multi-disc albums that refuse to accept that they're a single album. ID3 tags are all present, correct, and other multi-disc albums are working fine.

All of the troublesome albums are "Now that's what I call music...", specifically 33, 38, 51 and 1980 from the Millennium series. In the library these albums are presented as such...

Library >
-Now that's what I call music 33 >
--01 - Queen - Too Much Love Will Kill You
...
--20 - Oasis - Live Forever

-Now that's what I call music 33 >
--01 - Lighthouse Family - Lifted
...
--20 - Technohead - I Wanna Be A Hippy


Whereas other 'Now' albums appear in the library as...

Library >
-Now that's what I call music 88 >
--01 - Ella Henderson - Ghost
...
--22 - Idina Menzel - Let It Go
--01 - Clean Bandit - Rather Be
...
--23 - Paloma Faith - Only Love Can Hurt Like This


The folder structure on the share, for all 'Now' albums, goes...

Various Artists - NOW ## >
-Now ## CD1
-Now ## CD2


There are no cue (or other structural) files present, just the tracks and a folder.jpg for each album. Discs are identified by ID3 Disc Number in the format 1/2 and 2/2 and all show as expected in the likes of iTunes (with Home Sharing).

So, can any of you kind folk tell me where I'm going wrong please?

Thank you.
