[mythtv] MythMusic Compilation Artist Progress....

[Ian Campbell]

Hi Colin,

I guess that in the database the 'compilation' field is currently a
boolean? Is there anyway that a 'disk artist' could be stored
aswell/instead. I guess storing it per track would be a little wasteful.

I'm not really a database guy, but perhaps an int. where 0 means not a
compilation (i.e. disk artist is track artist) and >0 refers to an entry
in a compilation artist table? (hmm, even track artist could be a intid
pointing to an 'artists' table, but never mind that).

The reason I ask is that I have lots of compilation albums which are
magazine cover disks etc and have them setup as
	MAGAZINE - DATE/TRACK-ARTIST-TITLE
	Terrorizer - Fear Candy 01/01 - My Dying Bride - My Wine In Silence.ogg
Similarly for record label promo disks, soundtracks and what have you.

I'm not too fussed about changing how I do things (I need to rerip them
as flac anyway), but thought I'd stick my oar in now while things were
changing ;-)

Ian.
