Date tag warnings when using full date in JRiver

Please help me this. I'm testing out JRiver for managing dsf files. When I try to change the Date tag to yyyy-mm-dd, JRiver accepts this change, however, showing it as mm/dd/yyyy as a result. It's not clear to me if there is a way to change the Date tag to display yyyy-mm-dd.

When I restart MinimServer, the log shows messages indicating Date has an incorrect value and is truncated. However, for some albums I've changed, Date is not truncated to year, but shown incorrectly in the Lumin app, the year being correct but the month and day are wrong. Example: JRiver shows 8/17/1984 (correct), but Lumin app shows 1984-07-02 (incorrect).

These are some of the log messages:
Warning: truncating incorrect value for DATE tag 1994-15-02 in file DSD/Dead Can Dance/Toward The Within/06 The Wind That Shakes The Barley.dsf
Warning: truncating incorrect value for DATE tag 1994-15-02 in file DSD/Dead Can Dance/Toward The Within/07 I Am Stretched Out On Your Grave.dsf
Warning: truncating incorrect value for DATE tag 1994-15-02 in file DSD/Dead Can Dance/Toward The Within/14 Sanvean.dsf

These files in JRiver correctly display the date as 10/24/1994, not 1994-15-02.

I'm using the Lumin Network Player and app at their latest versions and MinimServer 0.72.

Thanks.

You might have more than one date tag in the file. MinimServer is correctly rejecting the value DATE=1994-15-02. Perhaps the file contains another date tag (either DATE, RELEASEDATE or ORIGINALDATE) that has the correct value 1994-10-24 and is being used by JRiver.

The format for the tagged date in the file must be yyyy-mm-dd according to the UPnP specification. It's fine for a control point such as JRiver to display this in some other form such as dd/mm/yyyy.

The easiest way for me to find out what's causing the problem would be for you to upload one of these files to my FTP server so that I can look at the tags in the file. I'll send you a PM with the server details.
