MinimServer Forum

Hi all

I am using the properties:
alphagroup: artist
serverOptions: artworkFolder=000_ Artwork

In that folder I put on top-level a picture for each letter "A", "B", etc.

In order to avoid, that an image file is used for a different tag, which has the same value (e.g. arists and albumname are the same, but you want one for the artists and one for the cover-artwork), you can create subfolders with the tagname as the foldername.

I am wondering, if that is also possible for the alphagrouping?
What would the required folder-name be?

In my case I have the issue, that the image for letter "M" is now being used for the track "Pop Muzik" from the band "M" as well.

In this situation you should put the image for the artist M in the index000_Artwork/Artist folder and the image for the letter M in the index000_Artwork folder. There is no specific artwork subfolder for letter images.

OK, thanks for the clarification, Simon.

AI had been absolutely sure about, that it is working and that the folder needs to be named "alphagroup"
I also tried others before.

As it is just one or two files, I won't look for an artist-image.
Maybe I will add a blank to the name or something similar, so that it differs from "M"

MinimServer removes trailing blanks and other "white space" characters from tag values. Something like a period or minus would be OK.

Thanks for the hint.

Also, in case it wasn't clear from my earlier post, you wouldn't need to put all artist images in an Artist subfolder to resolve the conflict, only the image for artist M.
