Hi,
New MinimServer user here, currently evaluating both Minim and Asset UPNP as a music server solution for my Synology (Docker). I'm looking to display all rated tracks comprising MP3, FLAC and the odd MP4 file. I have added the index tag "Rating" and this gives me folders for each rating but I would like also the option to view all rated tracks. The similar option in Asset UPNP would be "rating > & above". Is this possible? Thanks! |

RE: All rated tracks (MP3 & FLAC)
Yes, this is possible with MinimServer. In your MinimServer configuration, do the following:
1) In the indexTags property, add a new entry Rated=true 2) In the tagValue property, add this: Rated.default={Rating}, Rated.update={'true'} 3) Restart MinimServer In your control point, you will now see a Rated index in addtion to the Rating index. Clicking Rated will show all rated tracks with index entries for further selection. |

RE: All rated tracks (MP3 & FLAC)
There is basic information for getting started in the Quick Start guides on the MinimServer website.
Beyond this, MinimServer is very flexible with many different configuration options and it would be difficult to create sample configurations that meet a user's specific needs. There is detailed information on all MinimServer's features in the User guide but it is hard for a new user to know where to look. If you are using the web-based configuration interface, you can click on any property name to see a brief description of the property and a link to a section of the User guide that provides detailed information. For "How do I do..." questions such as the one you asked, the best way to get information is via this forum. You can search the forum by keyword to see if a question has been asked and answered previously. If you don't find an answer, post your question here and you should get a quick and helpful response which will form part of the knowledge base available to other users for future reference. |

Very useful configuration option. But how can I modify it to display the rating of "ALBUMRATING" albums in the same way? I tried to change the entry but I didn't get the desired result - the Index where my rated albums are grouped did not appear. It would be even nicer if they appeared as 5 categories, respectively 5* to 1*

I managed to correct it and it worked in my case, the entry looks like this: Rated.default={AlbumRating}, Rated.update={'true'} but one more request: after selecting Index Rated, subindexes could by appear where rated albums would be grouped on 5*, 4*, 3*,2*, 1*. Because now I get albums sorted by date...

The OP's post referred to Rating and your post is referring to AlbumRating. To get the display you want, you need to have AlbumRating in indexTags. This should show a subindex AlbumRating after you have selected Rated, with selections under the AlbumRating subindex for 5*, 4*, 3* 2*, 1*.

I added "AlbumRating" to IndexTag but I received the following information: Item tag name 'ALBUMRATING' is listed in indexTags; correct highlighted value and retry. What should I do to be able to add the "AlbumRating" option to IndexTag and subindexes: 5*, 4* etc.

You cannot have the same tag in both indexTags and itemTags. You need to remove AlbumRating from itemTags.

RE: All rated tracks (MP3 & FLAC)
Now it is working. Thank You. I have one more question - can I configure the AlbumRating display so that the "Unknow" category (i.e. all albums without AlbumRating) is not displayed?
