albumartist tag in musepack doesn't work

Hello, i really appreciate the great work you put into clementine player. Clementine 0.7.1 runs on my Debian Wheezy OS.

My music collection is sorted by the "album artist" tag. Clementine reads flawlessly all "artist" tags, but lacks in recognizing the "album artist" tag in musepack files only.

The tags do exist, i checked it with Ex Falso. Furthermore when i edit the musepack files with clementines own editor and fill the "album artist" tag field, it won't be saved.

Thank you.

I don't think it's the same issue. The "album artist" tag works fine with mp3 or ogg files. But it doesn't work with musepack. Even edited and saved by Clementine, the musepack files still have a blank field in the "album artist" section after reloading them.

Maybe there is a problem in how Clementine handles the apev2 tag format, which is different to Vorbis and Mp3?

Maybe. But this issue revolves around lack of albumartist support - just like issue #509 . This one will be mentioned in issue's #509 description so hopefully we won't forget this. :)

Shouldn't this be a duplicate of issue 1624 rather than 509? 509 is about sorting in the playlist, whereas 1624 is about album artist support in different file formats. http://code.google.com/p/clementine-player/issues/detail?id=1624
