Hi Simon

Thanks for your fast reply!

I didn't edit the minimserver.config-file. You thought so probably because I had to add the txt-File-Ending caused by the limitiation of the forum, which does not allow attachments with the config-ending.

For test purposes I added the hex dump-Names of tags (TIPL as an example) AND the Mp3Tags-Names of tags (INVOLVEDPEOPLE as the corresponding example). If I understand you right, in this example INVOLVEDPEOPLE would be the right tag name for the indexTags-Property?

I knowed this because of other of your replies in the forum. But I had the same problem with 30'000 files as well. For testing purposes I didn't look at the menu in the control point. I used the writeAllTags-Property instead, which produced the allTags.log.txt-File I attached to my initial post. I suppose, that in this file all the indexed values should be written, even when they are same between the two files in my test content directory.

In the following list you'll find all the tag names, which I added to indexTags and got not indexed. In bold font is the name from Mp3Tag and in italic font the corresponding one from HEX. As I wrote above I added both to indexTags:

1. COMMENT SONGS-DB_CUSTOM2 Songs-DB_Custom2
2. Involvedpeople TIPL
3. Rating MM and also Popularimeter POPM
   

If it helps I could also send you the two mp3-Files in a personal message.
