Composition tag

As we are on Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 /13.10 plus Vortexbox with MinimServer) CDs had been ripped using dbpoweramp (wine) and downloads have tagged using puddletag (or, in earlier days, mp3tag (wine)).

Surprisingly, MinimServer does not recognize the composition tag if I add it in puddletag even though the tag information is written into the file, according to verifications with mp3tag and the tag-editor of dbpoweramp (displayed as "composition", not "Composition"), on a friend's Notebook. Also, if I add the composition tag using mp3tag ("COMPOSITION") or the tag-editor of dbpoweramp ("Composition"), Minimserver recognizes and displays it immediately after a restart.

I have already tried to define the composition tag as "Composition" instead of "composition" in puddletag, without any effect.

I wonder whether others have the same issue and whether it is down to puddletag, Minimserver or else.

What type of audio file is this (e.g., MP3, FLAC, ALAC, MP4)?

MinimServer does not use case sensitivity when looking at tag names. There might be a problem with the way puddletag is writing this tag into the file. The quickest way to confirm this would be for me to look at the contents of one of your files that is tagged in this way. I will send you a PM with details of an FTP server where you can upload the file.
