How to separate albums that have the same name by different artists

Anonymous 1 supporters

How does one separate two albums by two different artists that have happened to call their respective albums the same name? I have a number of examples, but one that I can name now is Daft Punk & ELO, both have an album called discovery, and is labled with Various Artists under album artist, and the respective tracks all appear together.

This should only happen when one of the following conditions is true:

- The files are all in the same folder.
- The ALBUM ARTIST or ARTIST fields vary such that there's no one distinct artist present in at least 70% of the tracks.

So try reviewing the current fields, and see if changing them helps...
