Multiple performances of the same piece.

[SpruceFan]

I often have multiple performances of the same piece. At the moment, I handle this by naming, e.g.: Symphony No. 5 in c, Op. 67 [Norrington; London Classical]. It would be nice if when Symphony No. 5 in c, Op. 67 came up it was shown as a list whence one could choose Conductor, etc. I've not been able to find how to do this in the guide. This would be particularly convenient when running the control point on a mobile.

Fabulous software. I'm gradually editing my tags (originally developed for a SONOS system) to be better in line with my way of thinking about classical music, which MinimServer conforms to wonderfully well.

BTW, MinimServer works well when using an Auralic Aries Mini as a renderer.

You can use the following tags:

COMPOSITION=Symphony No. 5 in c, Op. 67
CONDUCTOR=Norrington
ORCHESTRA=London Classical

If you include Composition, Conductor and Orchestra in the indexTags property, selecting this piece from the Composition index will give you a choice of all the available conductors and orchestras for this piece.

Thank you!

You're very welcome! Some people prefer to use WORK rather than COMPOSITION for the name of the piece. You can use either of these tag names or any other name you prefer.

You might also like to generate the title automatically from these tags by putting the following into the tagFormat property:

Title.displayFormat={$work^$conductor$orchestra^ [^]^;}

This will show you the combined information in the same format that you are currently using.
