bug: handling multiple albums with same title

Hi,

I recently came across a bug that I haven't been able to track down. When I
load multiple albums with the same name (different artists), only one album
playlist gets created. The obvious examples are albums such as "Greatest
Hits", "The Ultimate Collection", etc

In my case, I had three different "The Ultimate Collection" albums. There
was one album in the ipod's gui but the track listing alternated between all
three: A1T1, A2T1, A3T1, A1T2, A2T2, A3T2, etc.

I'm not sure if this bug is in gtkpod or libgpod... I'll try to dig into
when I get a chance but I'd bet that someone more familiar with the
architecture could pinpoint the bug with ease.

Thanks,
Greg

It's a problem in GTKPod since we don't consider Album Artist for album separation, I wrote a patch for that but it got lost in the crowd...
I don't have any time now (started a new job) but when I'll have some, I'll work on it...
