RE: Content not playing in order or as whole record
While I don't know your particular hardware, it sounds as though the track number tags are incorrectly set in your music files.

It is important to remember that, other than for the purpose of retrieving files, music streaming software based on the UPnP protocol and its derivatives does not use file names; it uses tags. So the track order of an album is based on the track number tags. Likewise (certainly for MinimServer) what constitutes an Album is determined by the value of the Album tag in each file, and not by the Album folder name.

I suggest that you take one of your problem albums, and put it in its own folder in the music library (if it isn't in one already). Then use a tag editor to check that all the tracks have the same Album tag, and that the track tags are correctly numbered sequentially. Then have MinimServer do a rescan. If that doesn't work, please come back and describe exactly how the system misbehaved with that album.
