Very good. I already thought I am totally on the wrong track :-)

Ahhh, in my first post the blanks have been deleted as I did not format it as code. That's how it looks like

Code:

album.displayFormat={$album^^      $Date^[ ^ ]^}, title.displayFormat={$title^^$#AudioDuration^       ^^$#AudioFormat^  |  ^^}

I cleared the log and rescaned. There are only some warnings for some files with faulty tags. But these are different ones to those I am using for testing. And further warnings, that paths are not correct in one playlist (known)

No idea, to be honest. I believe the majority ouf of 28k files (acc. log)
I checked about 20 folders so far and maybe only 3-4 showed the year.

Yes, that's what I tried out.
First I thought only files with ID3 Tag show the year, but any files with ID3 even do not show the year.
Andafter changing files from ID3 and showing the year to Flac(FLAC) only they still show the year.
