Then in MinimServer when browsing 'albums' it is clear when an album is actually a 'single'. (SongKong has an option for this as well - 'Album Format:Add EP, Single, Compilation, Live and Remix release types to release title')

Thank you for the suggestion! I would rather have separate selection options in my control point through tagging I think. A folder "Album" and a folder "Singles" next to my "compilations" folder. I don't immediately see how I could achieve that with only the album name expanded. But that usually means I just haven't fully grasped the depth of the MinimServer software.

You are correct, you require a separate RELEASETYPE field as I suggested earlier to be able to browse album/singles separately. This was just an additional idea so that if you were browsing releases from a different direction (i.e via composer) you could simply distinguish between album and single.
