Bugzilla – Bug 1172
Composer appearing when doing Artist search

I uninstalled version 5.4.0 and then installed version 6.0b3, using the link http://www.slimdevices.com/downloads/nightly/latest/6.0/ I then went into Behavior within Server Settings and made sure that it is set to DON�T INCLUDE COMPOSER etc IN ARTISTS. Then I went into Performance within Server Setting and clicked on Wipe Cache. It then rescanned my music database, but after all this it is still including Composers within artists. Here is an example. I have an album by Diana Krall � The Girl In The Other Room. Five of the songs are written by Elvis Costello. If I search for Diana Krall it lists both Diana Krall and Diana Krall/Elvis Costello. If I select Diana Krall and then select the album The Girl In The Other Room it lists all the tracks on the album. If I select Diana Krall/Elvis Costello it lists the album The Girl In The Other Room which then contains the 5 tracks wriiten by Elvis Costello!! With this example it should only list Diana Krall and there should be no reference to Elvis Costello, except in the Composer field. I notice a similar bug was raised Bugzilla Bug 914, but the problem still appears to be in version 6.0b3. If you need any more information, please let me know.
Dan says that this is fixed in last night's nightly build. Please try that and reopen the bug if it's still happening. Thx.
