Local albums splitting up in collection

[egreisman]

Hi there, I added all my local files to my collection, but A LOT of the albums are split - i have a few tracks of an album sepeate from the others (there's a screenshot if you want).... This is really annoying - any fix?

Hi. Did you sign up for Collection beta testing? Have you checked the metadata for those files to make sure  they are correct?

[egreisman]

Yes, i'm signed up for the beats. All the metadata is correct as far as I can see... Itunes and WMP show everything fine...

[Joe]

OK. You should have an email with a forum link for discussing the beta.

Any new on this matter? it is 2016 and the problem still happens... and yes, I checked the songs tags, they are the same. on alll other players I have they show into the same album.

[EDIT] Also the same problem was posted here: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Quite-changing-album-covers-splitting-of-local-files/i...

I really dont get why you make it so dificult to proper handle local files... at least if it was something you (Spotify) had on your database...But it isn´t, so by your logic I should not be able to listen to my music...

In fact there is a way...give up on Spotify and use Google Music, much much better. their customer support really cares about you and they dont just screw your family plan out of the blue.
