What I found is super basic stuff like sorting doesn't work. For example, years sorted low to high, tagOptions removal of intro words like "The" didn't work. It seems like foobar doesn't use the sorted list MinimServer sends at all (it just uses the raw data I guess). I thought I had configured something wrong in the Minim props but when I finally checked another control point (BubbleUPnP Android) it all worked. My fault I guess for not trying multiple control points earlier to compare...

Foobar 2000 does many things but being a UPnP control point is not its strength. Much better for playback and CD burning. It works more reliable through a network share, I find.
