I'm importing a bunch of lectures from the Teaching Company (this particular set happens to be 84 lectures, broken into 7 sections). I'd like each section to be its own Audiobook. Worked fine for the first two. Now, for some reason, the third one has split itself into three audiobooks, despite the album being the same for all files.
Here are two samples from the library's XML file (these two appear in separate audiobooks for some reason):
