Обработано / Processed / [+] [1137] Songs with Multiple Song Artists only display longest artist name
« on: August 07, 2021, 23:37:44 »
I have many different songs with the song artist seperated by a semicolon (the ; character)
These all work and are parsed perfectly fine by AIMP for Windows (Shows both song artists)
but when using AIMP for Android, it chooses to remove one of the artists.
But this isn't done by removing the secondary artist, which would be preferred, but instead it seems to remove this based on the length of the strings.
Whichever string is shorter, gets removed as the artist for the file.
For instance, "AronChupa;Little Sis Nora", it removes "AronChupa", and displays the artist as "Little Sis Nora"
Versus if I edit this file and change it to "AronChupa;Littless", it displays the artist as "AronChupa",
Changing this to add any more characters to the second name in the artists tag displays it as the secondary artist again. I feel like this is a bug, since it tends to usually get rid of the main artist of the song and replace it with the secondary artist, which ends up making it both harder to search for songs (because it removes the main artist), and it also makes it harder to figure out who actually made the song.
This is reproducible with any file by editing the tags, that I have tried.
Also is not skin-dependent (I use Cubic by AJ, but it also happens on Charm and Bliss 2021)

Screenshots:
First one is with the artist name as "AronChupa;Littless"
Second is with the artist name as "AronChupa;Littlesisno"
