Going back to the default settings after messing up a parameter value
Hi there,
I just played around with some settings specified in this thread: http://forum1613.minimserver.com/showthread.php?tid=517 namely the parameters "-AlbumArtist.display.artistRole" and "Title.displayFormat={$artist^^ - ^$title}". The result was that in '[n] albums', the album title was replaced with the artist name, which of course is a bit pointless. No problem I thought, if I just set all the parameter values back to what I had before and restart minimwatch, then everything is back to normal. Sadly this isn't the case. How do I get the normal view back again? Thanks, Samuel. |

After changing any format settings, you need to restart MinimServer (not MinimWatch) by using the Restart option from the minim icon. What display changes were you trying to achieve by changing the format settings? |

RE: Going back to the default settings after messing up a parameter value
Apologies, I meant to say I already tried restarting MinimServer via MinimWatch, by using 'Restart'. (I assume that was your suggestion as well?)
Anyway, this unfortunately did not work. |

These explain in detail how to install and use MinimServer and MinimWatch on various platforms. The minim icon is provided by MinimServer (if it is installed on a platform with a graphical user interface) or by MinimWatch (if MinimServer is installed on a platform without a graphical user interface). You can find the minim icon in the system tray on Windows and Linux, and on the menu bar on Mac OS X. |

After restarting MinimServer, what settings do you see for the tagFormat property? Are they your modified settings, or the original settings? After entering any changes to property settings, you need to click OK or Apply to confirm the changes. Did you do this before you did the restart? |
