I should like to return to the original aspect of my post if you don't mind. I tried as an experiment using my control point to view the same albums 'by folder' using Synology Media Server and found that they displayed correctly. However, a track number in the form '01 - ' was inserted before the track name presumably by Media Server. This is clunky and not desirable but it works.

I wonder if there is a setting in MinimServer which I can amend to make it display like Media Server without having to switch to Tag View at least until I get clarification from the control point developers about why this is happening. This would give me the best of both worlds, having the superior features of MinimServer with tracks displayed in track order.

Many thanks.

You can do this by using tag formatting. In the tagFormat property, add the setting

Title.displayFormat={$tracknumber^^ - ^$title}

You will also need to add Tracknumber to the itemTags property.
