Thanks in advance for any help

Jim not sure which way you want to go here.
Do you want each disc of a multi-disc release to always be treated as a separate release, so just use a tag editor to find and replace on the album title to remove the '()' and & []'s

Or are you saying you would want to see Arkology as a single album consisting of three discs, so it is one album within MinimServer but showing the three discs within it. In this case your disc number field is incorrect since it should be set to one for first disc, two for second disc and so on.

You say you don't want to do this all by hand you can fix this all with an automated tagger, these can identify the albums and add the metadata according to the standard. Some have options to let you define if the (disc n of n) should be added to the album name or not. This can be enabled/didsabled easily which in effect toggles MinimServers multidisc album behaviour.

I want to see each disc of a multi-disc release as a separate disc. I must say I didn't realise a tagger could automate the replacement and if that's the case I can live with this.

I still maintain I would like to see a feature to configure which suffixes would be ignored when merging discs into one list.

Many thanks both of you for your answers: I will close the thread and re-post if necessary.
