Normally I have alfagrouping enabled and disabling showExtras seems to be a bad idea, since this blocking the way to view all albums ,artists etc..
Adding tracks multiple times does happen sometimes,not always (not using Folder View) and is as far I have noticed not related to a specific action.
I have done some testing yesterday and seems to me there is a relation between the album and how many times it gets duplicated.(using Folder View)
One album did load repetitively 20 times whilst another did just twice.
Could there be some information on these albums that could trigger this behaviour?

The '>> Tag View' link from folder view opens up the possibility of an arbitrary number of duplicates (when using an incompatible control point) depending on how the album is tagged. The only way to prevent this is by disabling showExtras to remove the '>> Tag View' link.

Other cases of duplication (not from folder view) will have a similar cause, triggered by one of the other three bullet points in this section. The only way to ensure you have no duplicates (when using an incompatible control point) is to set showExtras to false.

For the time being I think I will leave things as they are at the moment.
Multiple adding does not happen that frequently.
What I am interested in how to inform Cambridge Audio app developers to achieve a better compatibility with MinimServer (what is technically going wrong (especially when using Folder View)).
I know their vision is that the CA app should work with "mass-production" servers and they suggest MinimServer is just a small player in this context. Sometimes, however they take some comments seriously.
