The containment structure used by MinimServer is

Album > Disc > Group > Track

Because of this, a group cannot span discs. It would be possible for MinimServer to automatically split a group that spans discs into two groups, one for each disc. This seems lke the best option and this change is planned for a future version fo MinimServer.

Also, a group cannot contain non-consecutuve tracks because it would then need to contain all the other tracks between them. Again, it would be possible for MinimServer to automatically split the group into separate groups although this might result in a number of groups that contain only one track.

At present, MinimServer is producing an error mesage in both these cases and ignoring the GROUP tag. The tracks are still being read but are not shown as part of a group. There is no need to make any changes to your tagging.

Hi Simon,
again I am Tweaking my minimserver Configuration
And again I am blocked from using Groups because of these
limitations you describe above.
Are you planning to implement your own suggestions
in the near Future ?
They would be soo helpful. Angel

RE: Groups and multidisc albums
Yes, this is still my intention. I will move it higher in the priority list.
