collection always scanned if "writeAllTags" value exists

I think it would be reasonable to produce the tag list and do a full rescan only when some type of rescan is happening:

1) at startup if startupScan is set to 'true' or 'full'
2) whenever a manual Rescan operation is performed

Quote:One more question:
Is it possible to create a folder with randomly chosen albums?

With BubbleUPnP I can retrieve randomly selected tracks. Which would suffice if it would be easy to get to the album from the tracks. But to get to a track's album you have to play the track and select "Show album" from the context menu on the NowPlaying screen. Only then the full album (of one of the randomly chosen tracks) can be played by click.

So maybe this question would rather be suited for the BubbleUPnP author... I don't know if it's feasible to show randomly selected album presented as a MinimServer folder. Just like the tag folders. Only with random albums.

MinimServer doesn't provide a random selection of anything. You could ask the BubbleUPnP author whether he would like to add this feature.
