Compilation album broken by non-null Composer tag - dulldull - 04-27-2024

Hello all, 

Some of my itune ripped CD exhibit a problem with compilation album split into by track artist even if I have the album artist tagged with "Various Artists", whether the Composer field is not empty. 

Are there any fix to bring the album back together in the library -> album view? 

Thanks,
Andy

I'm not sure I understand the issue.

Does the album appear correctly when clicking on "Various Artists" in the artist list?

Tim, thanks for your swift response.
No the album won't show in tag view when I filter artist list by "Various Artists". I think I have the answer now. iTunes won't write the album artist tag correctly as "Various Artists". Despite I see it that way with foobar2000.
I shall explicitly save the album artist field to tell moOde it is a compilation album.
Thanks again.
