is there a way to show thumbnails for the artists in the home container? If not, do you have any plans to include this option?

Best regards

This isn't possible and I don't currently have any plans to add it.

Simon, are you suggesting this isn't possible with a UPnP server generally, or just saying it's not possible in MinimServer? I've just noticed that the Plex server provides artist thumbnails while browsing and actually liked the appearance.

Is there no possibility of providing a thumbnail / images facility - perhaps having a "images" folder; then a "Artists" sub folder and match a .jpg / .png to the artists name. With the same working for Composers and Conductors, etc? Could also then add an image for "Artists" browse tree so that all the icons aren't identical.

It would obviously be up to the user to manually add the images.
