Using EAC to write a cdartist tag

Hi,

I use EAC to rip and encode my mpc's via the command line mppenc

I want to use the CD Artist value from the command line for
compilation CDs for which I have selected the Various Artists option.
For file naming I can use %D for this, with %A being the track
artist. e.g.
%D - %C\%N %A - %T

But for command line encoding I can't find an equivalent variable.
I want to do something like this for an MPC encoding:
--artist "%a" --tag cdartist="%d" --title "%t"
(but here %d is the filename, which isn't what I want)

Has anyone worked out a way to do this please?
Thanks in advance.

Yours,

Ed
