How to populate ALBUMARTIST tag in Jriver from MinimServer

This is a bug in JRiver and it isn't possible for MinimServer to work around it.

I am discussing about it on JRiver forum at the end of this thread:

There is interesting comment of AndrewFG:
The UPNP specification defines XML names for meta data fields to be passed in ContentDirectory:Browse or ContentDirectory:Search responses. Some of thes meta data field names are derived from a so called "Dublin Core" namespace (such as the AlbumArtist name cited by the OP), and when MC passes meta data to other CPs or to other instances of itself it does also use the UPNP / Dublin Core namespace. However due to limitations of the UPNP / Dublin Core namespace MC has to extend the namespace with some of its own proprietary field names. AlbumArtist is I think one such field where MC has to use a proprietary namespace extension. I am not sure quite why, but it would probably be something related to do with the "Various Artists" grouping conundrum.
Theoretically MC could possibly fix this. But they may not see it as a top priority. It would certainly be easier to change your server from minimserver to another instance of MC. And one would obviously get a far better integration MC to MC than from another DMS to MC.

There is also separate thread about this issue but there is no response so far:
