We've tested having various artists within the same dir, but I'm not sure what happens if you've got various albums in the same dir.

We've changed the scanner code a good bit 1.0.8. You can always try that and see if it helps. I'll try to test about lumping a bunch of songs into one dir later tonight.
Trevarthan: Last night, in yet another (desperate?) attempt, I deleted my FAVORITE SONGS directory and reloaded all the songs individually onto the mmc. They are now in their initial artist_name/album_name/song_name.mp3 format. This has not resulted in any change in their appearance in Kagu from what I described previously. I don't want to re-edit the tags to remove the artist_name in first position, as for me that's of key importance in identifying the songs to be played (as some of the song titles are sung by different artists).
