Group only by album by default

[Bhaskarlimu55]

Description

If an app gathers details to organize songs into albums, that's wonderful. But if it fetchs that all songs, in an album, must have the same album artist's name, it's not doing the right thing. This way, it ends up splitting songs into different albums.

The rule that all songs in an album must have the same artist doesn't work everywhere. For example, in India, Bollywood movie albums often feature 10-11 singers.

I suggest "Auxio" should just gather the album name, like other apps do, without trying to match the album artist name.

Problem solved

No response

Other implementations

Auxio should match albums based only on their names, similar to what other apps like 'Grammaphone/Accord do.

Benefit

For efficiently find song in single folder.

I would recommend to just retag your library, but since I keep getting duplicate issues regarding this again and again I'm going to just switch the behavior to group by album by default. Seems like more users expect Auxio to blindly group by album rather than album and artist.

I second this change, it's quite annoying when on of my albums breaks up in 10 different albums because of how the apps sorts. This will definitely be good for UX and UI

I still have this issue in Version 3.4.3. It makes more sense to group albums by album name not combining it with the artists name. Especially Compilation Albums with many different Artists gets messy. I think it's a better UX/UI choice.

I think the original reason I went with it was actually technical, judging by the code. It's easier to group up albums if I have common artist info. But I've been needing to redo the grouping code because of #555, so it doesn't matter.
