You are probably right about that! I don't want to dig any deeper into this than is necessary for me to understand my MinimServer configuration. Suffice to say, I think an extra sentence or two of explanation would be desirable in the Custom Tag Settings section of the Other features page of your User Guide.

One result of forcing the Artist tag to include the Composer name (to meet the needs of control points such as the Naim app, which doesn't have an option to directly display Composer on its Now Playing screen), is that control points that do have this ability, such as BubbleUPnP, then end up showing Composer twice. However, thanks to the flexibility of MinimServer, adding a tagFormat setting like Composer.displayFormat={$sub-genre}, is one way to make better use of the BubbleUPnP display.
