Wrong display of Album Name

Hi,
I'm all new to this, and this is my first post, so please be patient if I am asking a question that has been asked a hundred times before. I tried to search the forum first but could not find anything related.

I added a new album to my catalog which is fully tagged. When I go to the album view, each song is displayed correctly and looks like this:

The Weeping Song | Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds | The Good Son | Rock | 4 | 4:25 ...

But next to the cover art the album title is displayed different. It looks like this:

Good Son (1990), Disk 1 - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

But the name of the album is not "Good Son" but "The Good Son". A I would also like to get rid of "Disk 1", because there is only one disk. I added a few more albums, and those are displayed correctly both in the tabular view and next the cover art.

I'm using Ampache 3.4.3 on php 5.2.

Any ideas?

JB.

Whups "The" should be in both places, I'll fix that. As for disk 1 it will only show it there if you have specified that the song is "Disk 1 of X" (as in a disk set, there should be no value if the cd is not part of a set)

Ah, I see. But where do I specify that this Album is not part of a set?

Best,
JB.

Re: Wrong display of Album Name

Okay, found it!

The "Part of Set" Information is stored inside the TPOS Tag.
(http://www.id3.org/id3v2.3.0)

In my favorite tagging software mp3tag
http://mp3tag.de/en/help/main_tags.html
this tag is available via the variable "discnumber".

Re: Wrong display of Album Name

If the record is NOT part of a set the TPOS field should be blank.  anything in that field means "part of set" even a zero.

Re: Wrong display of Album Name

Yes, it seems iTunes is particularly rude about this, and even single CDs will be labelled as Disc 1 of 1. Personally, it would be nice if ampache handled this gracefully and only displays disc number if there is more than 1 disc, but it's probably low priority :) I appreciate the ampache team's efforts and I'm sorry if I sound like I moan too much!

Re: Wrong display of Album Name

Hahaha... sigh.. I've said this before and I'll say it again. I _WILL NOT_ enable other programs to do things incorrectly. The standard specifically states that it is part of a set. Until the standard says otherwise I will not change ampache, iTunes should fix their bug :)
