Tagging classical music

I see in 2 above you suggest a separate Artist tag for each artist. I would like to try this rather than a comma separated list as in the BubbleDS display most of the information is chopped off. In fact there may be an issue with the size of certain fields in BubbleDS when I am entering all the artists for a quintet, (now I understand why I need a tablet).

If I am to try your proposal I assume I use the appropriate delimiter for the tag editor I am using. I seem to have this working now for EasyTAG where delimiter is "space-space" so in genre I have eg. Opera - Baroque so a disk appears in both genres if I search on them. I note that in the information shown when tapping the now playing screen this shows as "Opera, Baroque" which is interesting.

By default, MinimServer combines multiple values for the same tag using commas to separate the values and sends the combined string to the control point for display in album and track information. The advantage of tagging artists separately is that you get a separate index entry for each artist.
