iTunes 7.6 Coverflow View Showing Multiple Instances of Album Art

I looked around to see if anyone else was having this issue or had a resolution yet and found nothing.

I have a bunch of TV shows in my library and after I updated to iTunes 7.6, cover flow view began showing multiple album art covers for just one show.

For example, all my seasons of Lost were represented with just one piece of album art before, now all the episodes span across 3 or 4 pieces of album art.

Some shows are unaffected, such as 30 Rock or Heroes.

Why is this happening? How do I fix it?!

You might want to make sure that the ID3 tags are the same for all of the shows.

I have spent the last three hours painstakingly going over all the ID3 tags looking for any differences at all. But even if there are differences, why have they never mattered before?

It looks like this is happening within TV seasons - one piece of album artwork for the pilot episode and another identical piece of album artwork for the rest of the ep's in that season.

Yet the tags are identical!

Additionally, I have now lost the ability to see or sync with my TV.

What's going on in 7.6?
