![]() Thanks for any advice that can be offered.Īs an aside, while trying out MinimServer, I listened to an album by Richard Hawley entitled 'Coles Corner'. If MinimServer would offer improvoved sound quality, I guess I will have to bite the bullet and start working my way through. If there is no audible difference between the two when used as a server, I will save myself the trouble of having to re-tag all those albums. I should be grateful if anyone who has tried both could offer an insight. Will using MinimServer as a server produce a better sound than JRMC as a server. I believe this is attributable to an older version of JRMC that I used when dinosaurs roamed the earth. The only issue that I have with MinimServer is that it generates a stack of tagging errors. Given the previous experience of JPLAY authors/users with JRiver, this is not surprising. I am aware that Josef and Marcin's preference is for MinimServer. Thanks a lot also to Mellowman, french guy on french forum who initiated the discussion and helped me to go further on this approach quite automatized.I am currently looking into whether or not I should use JRMC 20.00.41 (Last version to work with JPLAY) or MinimServer alongside JPLAYStreamer in my dual PC setup. By selecting the year and month of creation date, you can after navigate through albums, typology of music, artist, year…. In terms of results, you just need to go to your UPnP Control Point, in my case Linn Kazoo, select minimserver and you would see appearing the “ Date d’ajout” tag with the format YYYY-MM. When done, you can “apply” and launch a rescan from minimwatch. You can change the wording after the “:” in order to reflect your needs (mine was in french). You need to go to “index tags” and “CREATION_DATE:Date d’ajout”. You need to open minimwatch while minimserver is running and select “ properties” tab. Now that the job with MP3Tag is finished, you need to tell to minimserver how to handle it. As soon as you select this action, the selected files will be updated accordingly. ![]() Personnaly i selected the following parameters “ $regexp(%_file_create_date%,(.)/(.)/(….),$3-$2)” in order to obtain the following output “ YYYY-MM“. These parameters “ $regexp(%_file_create_date%,(.)/(.)/(….),$3$2$1)” would lead to a format like “ YYYYMMDD“. As soon as you would validate, MP3Tag will create this special tag for all the selected files in the selected directory. As name, choose the one you like (for me CREATION_DATE) and in field, as you need to put something, you can type « temp » for example. Next step is to create a specific tag we can name « CREATION_DATE » For this, you need to click on the « tag » icon and create a new one (add field icon). Next, you need to select the directories of your music you want to update : go to “File” and “Change Directory”Īs soon as you would have selected the directories, MP3Tag will collect the tag informations. Let’s start, first, download MP3Tag from the editor’s link. The follow-up example will show how to sort the files by year and month (YYYY-MM) but you can change according to the date format of your country or…to your needs. The last step, will be to indicate to minimserver that it can use this new tags. The idea is to create a specific tag kinked to the creation date and populate automatically the creation date into this tag. What you need is for sure minimserver and MP3Tag as software. In few words, it is possible to do this kind of sorting quite easily and for free. For this reason and because of motivation given by few posts on a french forum, i tried to have a look to this topic. We can mention that this feature is available on the Lumin application through a specific tab and i assume it is linked to the Lumin app functionality that is creating this date when it screens the server for the updates. Simon, the creator of minimserver has this option in the « todo list » since years but still not available. This sorting is embedded is few server software like Roon or JRiver but it is lacking for years on some well established UPnP servers like minimserver. When you still buy some files instead of streaming from Qobuz/Tidal for example, a way of sorting the files is through the creation or import date of the file.
