Default iTunes and Movie Soundtracks.

Whenever I put a movie soundtrack into my library (various artists) it's splits it into loads of different albums, one for each artist. Is there any way to stop it? Now 74 worked fine and that has various artists

I have this problem randomly sometimes even if its the same artist, itunes is aweful for it IMO.

Maybe sort by album rather then artist, unless your doing this already?

At the top of the column, where it says, artist, track name, album, etc. click on the column you want it to be ordered by and it should sort it using that column instead.

I think its just iTunes being stupid as this has happened to me before and i havent been able to fix it.

what you need to do is right click the album cover then click on get info, then click the info tab at the top. then below the album title is a bit called grouping you need to write the album title into there and do the same on the ones that you want grouped together.
itunes is a pain in the arse sometimes it always does it to albums that have various artists!

I did that, although there was no tab for Grouping, so I'm guessing Sorting was the one?

But nothing happened either way.
