I did that and it works fine now. Thanks

No, I set it up myself and may have added Album in attempt to solve the unexpected outcomes of more tags (disc # and albumartist) being used than by Twonky.

I appreciate that using extra tags does help with classical music although they are not what I need. I would simply prefer to use (Twonky) Artist Index rather than All Artists as it helps find the right artist / album quicker with my 3200 Albums. Is that a feature that could be made available now or as a future enhancement?

Can I also ask what the TagsCustom do?

It is indeed very efficient and impressive speed. I just wanted to know what I need to do when I add future albums.

Thanks again for your patient help...TomP

The only thing you have to do is a manual rescan.
But..... If you want to gain the possibilities MinimServer provides, you have to take care of some proper tagging.
I personally like to copy a new album to my PC (with also MinimServer installed) ,tag the album the way I want it to be(using MP3 tag or DB Poweramp (Windows)) and test it using MinimServer PC and if correct copy the files to my NAS.
Tagging the files on your PC goes much faster then doing this directly on your NAS!
