I think this is what you were suggesting to add to Minim as an option so that the tagging and naming doesn't need to match one of those rules you mention to show them separately? In which case it would be neat if it could handle such cases better. In fact most of my albums are now tagged n/N for discnumber but this was not always the case (and I seem to remember there's even an option in dBPoweramp to strip out the "/N").

There is a difference between MinimServer recognising that an album is multidisc and the way it displays a multidisc album (either with or without disc information). I am not proposing any change to how MinimServer recognises that an album is multidisc. I am proposing a change to the way MinimServer decides how to display a multidisc album (either with or without disc information).

OK.

Or is that control point dependent?

The text for each of the discs in the new alternative view would be the same as currently, i.e., the discsubtitle if present and "Disc n" otherwise.

I just wanted to make sure you mean what appears as the disc "separator" on the full album view and what the "Title" shows when you select the >>, will appear under the album art in the alternative view, rather than the album title which it currently shows.

Are you proposing this mashed up example?:
