Album Artist Viewed Selectively..?

Either that or I was doing it wrong...?

You can configure MinimServer to send exactly what Asset is sending if you want to. The problem with this is that it will omit the track artists (as the Naim app does with Asset). If this is what you want, let me know and I will post instructions.

Cheers, Steve

THanks very much!
