Something like a translatable "Various Artists" (or whatever) in a slightly different font would probably make more sense, since there's a programmatic way to mark compilation albums (e.g. TCMP frame in ID3 or a 'COMPILATION' key in VorbisComment).
Of course, tagging albums with a fake album artist "Various Artists" would somewhat mitigate my pet peeve, but this seems like a clunky workaround.
Another possible workaround would maybe to report "Unknown Artists" on albums without the album artist meta-data. I don't really like it, and falling back to song artists seems like a good practice.
However, actually implementing support for compilation albums meta-data requires upstream changes in tracker and some other projects. That's why I would like to consult beforehand with people that know better before doing random PRs all over the place.https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-music/-/issues/114Music splits albums if they contain multiple audio file extensions2020-07-04T20:08:53ZBugzillaMusic splits albums if they contain multiple audio file extensions## Submitted by Jordan

## Description
Some of the albums on my music library are containing audiofiles of multiple extensions like both .mp3 and .opus files. There metadata though are exactly the same and I had used Picard to name/move/etc the tracks. But Music would show a copy of the album with containing only a file extension at a time instead of combining it into one album.
After I corvert my files to mp3 the album would show up correctly.
Steps to reproduce:
find an album on your library and convert some files to a different codec/extension.
