Right, I've found a partial solution - go to folder view & the albums are there.

If you want to see your music in MinimServer's tag view (the default), it needs to have tags. Smile

It appears the .WAV files I can't see were ripped using a Naim device. The tags are in the folder but show as a separate list from the music files.

This style of tagging is proprietary to Naim and doesn't follow any industry standard. MinimServer doesn't support these Naim tags and I don't have any plans to add this support. MinimServer does support ID3v2 tags in WAV files.

So how best to re-tag these files please?

As far as I know, the only way would be to use Naim tools to convert these WAV files to FLAC (retaining the tags) and then use dBpoweramp to convert the FLAC files back to WAV (also retaining the tags).

OK thanks Simon, I'll look into this.

From Melco FB page today regarding control app :

Hi Dan, the app is being trialled at the moment and is nearing release... watch this space!

If the app allows MinimServer control through Direct Player with library browsing I would be immensely happy :-) How they could do it???
