I thought I would test the tagFormat and tagOptions today.

Once I got my head around the syntax, I think its an excellent feature.

I have used the ignore.sort, reverseName & Album.displayFormat to achieve the following from my control point.

Artist 'The Beatles' is now ordered under 'B' but still appears as 'The Beatles'.
Conductor now displays as 'Claudio Abbado'. Done the same for Composer.
All Album titles are now suffixed with AudioQuality, e.g. 'A Funk Odyssey, CD', 'A Life in Film, HD'.

This software is amazing. Its a real pleasure to use and makes the whole streaming experience more enjoyable.

Thank you once again.

I've also done the first two items, but how did you achieve the last example (i.e. appending the audio quality to the album title)?

Thanks, in advance.

OK, I figured out part of the solution:

Album.displayFormat={$album^$#AudioQuality^ [^]}

...presents something like:

Album Title [CD]

Cool. I wonder if it's possible to get to something like this:

Album Title [CD, 2014]

I don't seem to be able to insert more than one variable into the suffix portion of the variable.
