Simple-ish string question

Hey guys,

At the moment i have this: $if([%ALBUM ARTIST%],%album%,%artist%)

It checks to see if "ALBUM ARTIST" exists, if it does it returns %album%, if not it returns %artist%

I want to change it so that it checks if "ALBUM ARTISTS" is longer than 0 characters, if it does it returns %album%, if not it returns %artist%.

Im having a bit of trouble figuring out how to do that, could you please give me a pointer or two?

Thankyou,
Rob.

This might serve you even better  :

$if($meta(album artist),%album%,%artist%|%album)|

This will avoid situations like:

OST- I am sam\OST- I am sam\
