When viewed in Kinksy, the tracks show as 1-19 then the numbers jump to 39-51. I played with the mergefolderalbums property and it did not fixt it. In the end, I edited the disc tag for tracks 20-32 to 1, then on a re-scan all was fine in Kinsky. Has minimserver got confused due to the track numbers not starting at 1 for the "disc 2" tracks?

MinimServer is not "confused" but is working as designed. It is normal for the tracks on disc 2 to be tagged as disc 2 / track 1 / track 2 etc. and MinimServer is allowing for this by adding 19 to all the track numbers in disc 2.

Quote:One other small point: I was surprised after another download that "MIKA" and "Mika" were regarded as separate artists. Is case-sensitivity deliberate?

Thanks.

It is deliberate. If MinimServer were to automatically combine "MIKA" and "Mika", it would not be able to know which of these spelllings you want to be used for the combined artist.
