I'm pleased to hear this. Thanks for your help with finding and fixing this problem.

Quote:I figured out that the sort value conflicts result from tracks where the artist was reversed "Reese, Mark" and the AlbumArtist was not reversed "Mark Reese". Since I don't usually set the AlbumArtist at all, this slipped by me. The message might be more useful for troubleshooting if it gave the track title, or some other identifying information about which file generated the conflict. I had to hunt through my collection to try to find files that might be generating the problem.

The message could identify the file that generates the conflict message. This might not always be the file that is "wrong" but it should help some of the time.

Quote:Actually I am a bit puzzled by one thing. I have an album done by two people where each track is a solo and the artists alternate tracks. There are two albumartist tags, "Leri, Dennis" and "Kress, Carol". Then each file is individually artist tagged as either "Leri, Dennis" or "Kress, Carol" as appropriate.

MinimServer doesn't allow more than one AlbumArtist tag on the same album. You can have any number of Artist tags. If you need an AlbumArtist tag on this album for some reason, you could use something like "Leri, Dennis and Kress, Carol".
