Field Mismatch (Artist)

If you want to check artists for specific fields that do not match, eg their [country], try:

[Media Type]=[Audio] ~nodup=[Artist],[Country] ~dup=[Artist] ~sort=[Artist],[Country]

For other fields, replace [Country] in the above example.

Notes:

  • You may want to tailor your results view to show useful fields that allow you to determine whether artists shown with different fields are the same artist, and not another artist of the same name. For example, showing [genre] can be useful here.
  • The modifier ~a can be used to expand the results to full albums. Again this can be useful for showing which field is more common and thus more likely to be correct. It also allows mass tag updates.
