Plex Music showing a specific artists name instead of "Various"

Server Version#: 4.34.4
Player Version#:

Can anyone tell me why Plex is showing all of my “Various Artists” as a single artists name (Tom Moulton)? All of my files are .m4v and 100% tagged correctly. My soundtracks reside in a soundtracks folder in my music library and all of my “Various Artists” reside in a various artists folder. However instead of saying Various Artists for the “artist” they all say “Tom Moulton” who is a 1970’s disco music producer. Any ideas as to why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?

Hello,
My album artists fields are all tagged as “various artists” for the albums and soundtracks that are are various.
for instance soundtracks are in:
/PLEX MUSIC
/SOUNDTRACKS
/The Warriors (The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (1979)
1 Barry De Vorzon - Theme From “The Warriors”
2 Arnold McCuller - Nowhere To Run

etc, “The Warriors” album artist is tagged as “Various Artists” but in Plex it shows up under “Tom Moulton” who is not even an artist featured in the movie, this is the same for all of my soundtracks and various artist compliations…they all list the artist as “Tom Moulton”

yes mine are the same all tagged correctly in the album artists field, Plex is just not reading the field correctly

Same thing happened to my friend, his solution was to play the Plex dance with his entire Soundtracks and Various Artists Folder.
