Too long Album Artist tag in FLAC makes each song from the same album appear as separate albums.

Issue #755 resolved
Former user created an issue

If the tags "Album" and "Album Artist" of separate songs are the same, they are supposed to be handed out as separate tracks of the same album.

However, if the Album Artist contains a string that is too long, the tracks are instead presented as separate albums, but with the same name.

The Album Artist tag string "Wiener Philharmoniker, Claudio Abbado, Maurizio Pollini, Gabriela Lechner, Gretchen Eder, Elisabeth Mach, Jorge Pita, Andreas Esders, Gerhard Eder, Konzertvereinigung Wiener Staatsopernchor, Walter Hagen-Groll"

seems to be long enough to trigger the bug.

    I'd challenge the "minor" mark.

    The defect does make the presentation useless when it happens.
