Quote:ALBUM: The Beatles
DISCSUBTITLE: Please Please Me
DISCNUMBER: 1
TRACKNUMBER: 1
TITLE: I Saw Her Standing There
...
ALBUM: The Beatles
DISCSUBTITLE: With The Beatles
DISCNUMBER: 2
TRACKNUMBER: 1
TITLE: It Won't Be Long
...

You'll want to name the box set artwork "folder.jpg" and any disc specific artwork after the DISCSUBTITLE tag e.g. "Please Please Me.jpg". Other naming variations are possible but I've found this the best approach for compatibility.


MinimServer uses the GROUP tag to group tracks into logical playable items, so you need to alias your WORK tag to GROUP.

Quote:aliasTags: WORK:GROUP

In the above example, "111 Years Of Deutsche Grammophon" is the ALBUM (which I cut out the screenshot apparently), "Hahn ● Bach ● Concertos" the DISCSUBTITLE and "Concerto for Violin, Strings and Continuo in E major, BWV 1042" the WORK.

If you want to filter your collection based on WORK (now known as GROUP to MinimServer) you'll need to add GROUP to indexTags (and rename it to "Work" for display purposes):

Quote:indexTags: GROUP:Work

What mobile OS are you using, and what app to browse MinimServer?

Thank you, I am using iOS and the Wattson Audio Music App or Audirvana on MacOS.
