! Various Artists !
The exclamation marks are how I push this item to the top of the Album Artist drop-down list in the Album Artist box on the Properties sheet
For a long time, this item did appear atop the Album Artist drop-down list, but about a year ago it disappeared
It reappeared briefly once for a short time before going back into hibernation
It does NOT appear without the exclamation marks, way down the list as Various Artists
I have optimized the library (Quick & Complete) with no change
The item always shows up atop the list for Album Artist node of the Media Tree
No other item seems to be similarly affected.
I had an occasion to use ! Various Artists ! in the Artist data entry box on the Properties sheet and from that, the item always appears on the Artist drop-down list
This is, of course, only a minor imposition, but if the problem solution is known, I'd appreciate the assistance.
