Tagging Album Title + AudioQuality

[maikeru]

Hi,

I would like to see: Album name + AudioQuality.

e.g.: I Put a Spell on You (HD)
or Blues on the Bayou (CD)
bonus points: differentiate HD types, i.e. between HD and DSD

I got this to work for each separate track, but I'd like it for the Album name.

Now using:
Title.displayFormat={$title^$#AudioQuality^ [^]}

When I substitute Album for Title nothing happens.

Best,
Michael

DSD is an audio format, not an audio quality.

You need:
Album.displayFormat={$album^$#AudioQuality^ [^]}

Thanks - that worked for the bottom-level album title (when already in the album and looking at tracks) b̶u̶t̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶o̶n̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶p̶-̶l̶e̶v̶e̶l̶ ̶(̶w̶h̶e̶n̶ ̶l̶o̶o̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶a̶t̶ ̶a̶ ̶s̶l̶e̶w̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶a̶l̶b̶u̶m̶s̶)̶.̶ ̶I̶s̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶r̶e̶ ̶s̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶w̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶d̶i̶f̶f̶e̶r̶e̶n̶t̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶s̶e̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶p̶-̶l̶e̶v̶e̶l̶ ̶?̶ ̶ ̶O̶r̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶i̶d̶i̶o̶s̶y̶n̶c̶r̶a̶s̶y̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶m̶y̶ ̶c̶o̶n̶t̶r̶o̶l̶ ̶p̶o̶i̶n̶t̶ ̶(̶L̶u̶m̶i̶n̶ ̶a̶p̶p̶ ̶o̶n̶ ̶i̶P̶a̶d̶)̶?̶

Correction - it works. Just not in Folder view, which, as a newbie, I've been leaning towards until I get my tags rationally organized.

Thanks again!

In folder view, the "album" that you're seeing is actually a folder (assuming you have each album in its own folder) and the "album name" is the folder name. To change the name displayed by MinimServer, you would need to rename the album folder.

Sorry to jump in here but as a newbie and not english native speaker I must ask, where I have to put the command in? It doesn't work for me, is the $ the dollar sign? I am on OS X btw.

EDIT: I have sorted it out, thanks.
