The UPnP specification allows album contents to be either 'object.item.audioItem.musicTrack' or 'object.container.album.musicAlbum'. This means that MinimServer is not strictly compliant with the UPnP specification in the way it formats multidisc albums, although it seems that most or all other control points support this usage.

I tried changng the ">> Disc n" separator to 'object.container.album.musicAlbum' in order to be strictly compliant with the UPnP specification but the Cambridge app still didn't display it.

I am considering introducing a new property to disable album merging when the album title contains a "disc" suffix (in various formats). Before I make a final decision on this, I would be interested to hear whether the Cambridge app developers are willing to remove the current limitation.
I have asked the CA app developers to remove this current limitation or make it otherwise ( within UPnP specifications) possible to use the >> Disc N separator in combination with the CA Connect app.
The >>Disc separator does show correctly after update 88 in the "old" SteamMagic app. I just checked this for testing purposes since this app lost its functionality using the current Firmware .
