I have entered Artists:-Artist into aliasTags, rescanned (which took some time), restarted but still no featured artists are found in All Artists. I tried browsing using my bose soundtouch app and the mconnect app, both identical. As far as i can tell my mp3's are tagged ok, i verified the ARTISTS tags for the song above in Extended Tags in Mp3tag - all looked fine.

I even tried dropping the - in alias tags to Artists:Artist, rescanned, restarted and still no luck

Am i doing something wrong?

Which scan did you perform?
True of Full

I think you will need Full. See following.

startupScan
If set to true (the default), MinimServer does a complete library scan when it is started.
If set to full, this scan ignores any existing cache files.
If set to false, no library scan is done when MinimServer is started. See the Reading audio files section for details.


To test, perhaps create a smaller library or create a test folder within your current directory. Once test is finished you can then ignore the test folder using the following.

excludePattern
A comma-separated list of one or more file-matching patterns.
A file or folder is excluded from scanning if its name matches any of the patterns in the list. See the File scanning section for details.
