Play unplayed first & genre tags

\\ is the delimiter that Mp3Tag uses to signify that a tag is (to be) split into multiple values, it's not stored in the tag, and other apps have chosen to use different delimiters (foobar uses ; ).

How can I get these songs displayed in both genres seperatly, instead of displaying a category as "Jazz;Blues"?

If you're seeing "Jazz;Blues" in MinimServer then it's likely that your tags are stored incorrectly (not as a multi-value tag). What format are your music files and what tagging software do you use?

So has Minimserver a way to give preference to least played music first if shuffling all songs?

In UPnP (unlike LMS) it's the control point (not the server) that manages the playback queue so this is outside the scope of the media server really, and I'm afraid I don't know of a control point that has this functionality. That being said I've only really used BubbleUPnP and Hi-Fi Cast.
