Multiple artist tagging for .mp3 files in iAudio 9

[San D]

Hello. I have a Cowon iAudio 9 (Firmware 1.14). Can anyone please tell me whether it supports multiple artist tagging for .mp3 files.

The following example will explain the issue further. Say I have a .mp3 file with the following ID3 tags.

Title: My Little Brown Book
Artist: Duke Ellington & John Coltrane

Now, this track is listed under a separate artist, i.e., "Duke Ellington & John Coltrane", and appears in the song listing of neither.

I have tried tagging the 'Artist' field as "Duke Ellington; John Coltrane" from MediaMonkey (v4.0.3.1476), where it shows the track separately under the two artists. However, in the iAudio 9 and other PC media players (e.g., VLC Media Player), the artist is shown as "Duke Ellington/John Coltrane", and not separately. Even Mp3tag could not help much in this regard.

Any help regarding this is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
