not all artists displayed

1) If there is an AlbumArtist tag, use this value

2) Otherwise, use the Artist.indexFormat setting if there is one

3) Otherwise, use all the Artist values separated by commas

The value you are seeing on the Now Playing screen is created by your Artist.displayFormat setting. This is why it has a different format with '/' separators between the artist names.

The other album with Sol Gabetta and Hélène Grimaud presumably does not have an AlbumArtist tag value, so rule 3) has been applied.

Thanks for this clarification. I have replaced "Artist\:Interpret" with "All Artists\:Interpret" which solves the issue re artist field (see screen shoot 3).
However, I wonder whether there is a possibility to de-activate option 1 in favor of options 2 and 3. This would allow me to continue to use the album tag in quite an arbitrary manner.

BTW:
Your remark Gabetta/Grimaud made me verify the respective tags. Both musicians are in the artist as well as in the album artist tag. They appear in the artist field of nstream, but not in the album artist field. The minimserver log file issues the following warning: "conflicting ALBUMARTIST values ignored for file .... / first conflicting value: Sol Gabetta / second conflicting value: Hélène Grimaud"
Does this mean that Minimserver accepts a single album artist only ? If so, can this number be increased (if not, correcting about two dozen albums would be a too difficult task)
