Index tags

[Sleepingbee]

Hi,

I've changed my indexTags in Minimserver to include 'soloists', but it's not showing on my device. Is there a way to check that where I've added it is being picked up?

After making this change, you need to do a rescan. Also, are you sure the tag name in your files is Soloists rather than Soloist?

Hi, nothing happened. I'm not sure my device is reading the change. Might have to do with the path?

[simoncn]

I am not sure which device or path you mean. What device are you using to run MinimServer and what device are you using to browse your library?

[Sleepingbee]

I'm using my MacBook Pro to run Minimserver, and browsing my library on my iPad Mini and on my iPhone 12 Pro.

Are you sure your files are tagged with Soloists tags? Did you add these tags to the files yourself using a tagging program?

You can use the writeAllTags MinimServer property to create a listing that contains all the tag names and values in your library. Once you've made the change you'll need to perform a rescan before the file is created.
This will help you identify the available tags for use in IndexTags.

What app are you using on your iPad/iPhone as some have their own cache and need rebuilding e.g. Lumin, Naim (I think).

Yes

The next step is to use the writeAllTags property (as simbun has suggested) to check whether MinimServer is reading the Soloists tags you have added to your files.
