These screenshots show that you are seeing 12963 Titel (12963 items) at the top level, as expected. At the next level (AlbumArtist), you don't see this line because you have set listViewAlbums=all.

I don't see any resolution to this request other than "it can't be done". I'd like to 2nd the request to remove the album count and item count and just show a default folder view. My library is modest, about 60 SACDs (so far) that have been ripped and I appreciate that I can stream native DSD files to my Denon AVR using MinimServer. I don't really use all the bells and whistles, I bought a full license to support the developer(s) and show appreciation for a fine application. I would really like to select MinimServer on my control point (either on the Denon directly via HEOS if I want to see album art or play stereo .dsf files, or my Sony Blu-ray player if I want to play 5.1 mixes over HDMI to the Denon. All I really want is to see is the folders in the contentDIR I've entered (D:\Music) and then click the Stereo or Multichannel subdirectory, and then look for the album I want to listen to next. I don't need a count of albums, I certainly don't need a count or list of all the songs in my library, and I really don't even need the <<folder view>> option to be shown, which is just another click of the remote for me to get to the D:Music folder (an NVMe SSD on a mini PC that's running MinimServer). Please consider adding a checkbox or setting that simply shows the folders in the "contentDIR" and nothing else.

You can set the indexTags property to the special value 'none' (with or without quotes) to remove all tag selections from the top-level index. The top-level index will then be something like this:
60 albums
678 items
[folder view]
Selecting [folder view] will take you directly to the list of folders.
At present it isn't possible to avoid the need to select [folder view]. It would be possible to add a new option to the serverOptions property to change the top-level index from tag view to folder view so that you see a list of folders without needing to select the [folder view] index entry first. I will look into adding this option in a future MinimServer update.

Thank you! That's exactly the way I have it currently configured, and when I select MinimServer from the Sony Blu-ray or the HEOS app on the Denon I see only 60 Albums, 601 Items, [folder view]. I select [folder view] and I get into my contentDIR and see the folders. It would just be a friendlier, more elegant entry point to eliminate the cluttered screen and extra click that aren't really necessary for the way I use it. I appreciate the quick response!
