indexArtwork and tagUpdate question
Hello
Trying to get the most out of the excellent Minimserver, this excellent forum have planted some ideas that I would have never thought of...

But: I don't get any composer images, however Artist and Genre works flawlessly. I am using @Reinibert tip in: [url=https://forum.minimserver.com/showthread.php?tid=5062&pid=31744#pid31744]/url]

That works fine, but no composer images are displayed when using the tagUpdate file. I have tried to change the image folder name from Composer to COMPOSERSORT2 but that didn't work...

Have someone tried this? Huh

My indexTags: Artist, Date, Genre, All Artists, Performer, COMPOSERSORT2:Composer, *RecentAdded, *RecentPlayed, #AudioQuality:Quality

My tagOptions: Album.sortTags={+Date, Album, Artist}, Date.yearOnly.index, all.ignore.sort={The}, -Album.ignore.sort, COMPOSERSORT2.reverseName.display.index

RE: indexArtwork and tagUpdate question
What filename are you using for the composer artwork image? Is it the reversed name (Ludwig van Beethoven.jpg) or the tagged name (Beethoven, Ludwig van.jpg)?

I am using the reversed name. I just tried with the indexed name of the image file but that didn't work either. I got indexArtwork=all btw.

RE: indexArtwork and tagUpdate question
I have tried this using the following settings:

1) indexArtwork property set to either folder or all

2) tagUpdate file contains the following:

@COMPOSER=Beethoven
@COMPOSER=Beethoven, Ludwig van [composer]
@COMPOSER=Beethoven, Ludwig van [author]
@COMPOSER=L. Beethoven
@COMPOSER=Beethoven, L.
@COMPOSER=Beethoven, Ludwig van
@COMPOSER=Ludwig van Beethoven
@COMPOSER=Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827)
@COMPOSER=Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)
+COMPOSERSORT2=Beethoven (1770-1827), Ludwig van

3) audio file contains a Composer tag: Beethoven

4) indexTags contains COMPOSERSORT2:Composer

5) tagOptions contains COMPOSERSORT2.reverseName.display.index

6) indexArtwork folder has a subfolder COMPOSERSORT2 containing the file: Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827).jpg

With these settings, the expected image is displayed for the entry 'Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)' in the Composer index. The name of the artwork file needs to match exactly including spaces and parentheses.
