I used Metadatics’ “Grouping” tag - I have Macs running Yosemite -and according to my writeAllTags file/output from MinimServer I have now over 100 “GROUPING” tags, but none of which render the tracks as groups in my control point.

This shouldn't be happening. This output should show CONTENTGROUP, not GROUPING. What are the filetypes (e.g., FLAC, MP3, M4A) of the files that contain GROUPING tags?

The GROUPING-tagged files all seem to be FLAC. (The CONTENTGROUP-tagged files were M4A)

Quote:I have, however, one Album of 10 tracks that contains 3 “CONTENTGROUP” tags and which is rendered as groups in the way I wished… (I do not know why this album should have different tagging from the others...)

After perusing an earlier thread on this forum I entered ContentGroup:Group in aliasTags and restarted MinimServer, but this makes no apparent difference.

I would be very grateful if someone could point out the (blindingly obvious?) thing that I have overlooked or misapplied.

With thanks in advance...

You are on the right track by using ContentGroup:Group in aliasTags. You should also add Grouping:Group as a workaround for the GROUPING tags in your writeAllTags output. Does this help?

That not only helps, it seems to have solved the problem entirely!

Thank you so very much!
