But isn't it based on what AlbumArtist and Artist fields we have. So actually because I do nothing to the AlbumArtist field it should have no effect, but because I alias Artisst into Artist it would affect that search, whereas if I did it with

indexTags:Artists
tagValue:Artists.default={Artist}

and left Artist field alone, it would have no effect on uPnP search ?

Actually these questions are not really for personal use they are for my role as SongKong Music Tagger developer. this has features to support MinimServer, I am updating an old MinimServer tutorial I wrote, you can see the section on Track Artist here - https://community.jthink.net/t/tutorial-...ists/11924
