Many thanks for the response :-)
Please excuse my lack of comprehension - I'm still trying to get to grips with how the various elements interrelate.
All the entries are in alphabetical order under the relevant search criteria folders (Artist, Album etc.) The display and options on my Marantz control point are quite different between using DSM media server on the Synology and Minimserver (also on synology) Using DSM media server with my control point there is an A-Z grid/list to the right of the screen that allows you to click on a letter and skip to the relevant point in the alphabetic list of displayed media. Using minimserver with my control point this is not available and the only way to get to any media beginning with Z is to scroll through my entire collection. Do you have any suggestions?
Many thanks for your time,
Richard.

Please post screenshots of the two screens (DSM with alphabet and MinimServer without alphabet). You could also ask on a Marantz forum how the Marantz control point decides whether or not to show this alphabet.

Hi Simon,
I'll try and sort some photos. Am unsure how to get screenshots from Ipad to computer. I think the post below from Cebolla sounds like a plausible explanation. I've tried both versions of the Marantz control apps and it's the same issue. Indeed the first folder level of the DSM server is: Music/Video/Photo whilst for Minimserver it's the Album/Artist etc folders. Is there any way to add a top level music folder from within Minimserver?
Many thanks,
Richard.
