Does anyone use the Compilation Rollup option?

Thanks, Tim,

That does it!  I'm going to start a band called "Various Artists" just to screw with your compilation detection.  

But, seriously, I clearly didn't research the MPD stuff first, so that's my bad.  It's unfortunate that the ID3 tag standard doesn't include something so basic as a part-of-a-compilation indicator, but I understand the desire to not reward Apple for a non-standard addition, no matter how useful it might be.  Apple sells all over the world, so a compilation detection mechanism that required users to use the English phrase "Various Artists" isn't really an option for them.

Your method works fine and I've taken care of the tagging quickly.  I'd recommend that you let people select their own album artist string to indicate that it's a compilation, adapting to other languages or other preferences ("Various," "Multiple," "Misc. Artists," etc.)

Thanks for all of your efforts.  moOde 6.0.0 is working wonderfully on my Pi 3B, though I'm eager for a Pi 4 4GB to become available at my local Micro Center (they have 2GB models as of this morning).
