I found a SlimServer anomaly in organizing Albums in the Music Folder.
And came up with a workaround.
I organized my FLAC files this way:
/Lossless/Artistes/Album/{Album content}
{Album content} consists of a .cue file, a FLAC file, and cover.jpg
belonging to that album.
Consider this...
/Lossless/Jimmy Abb/28 All Time Favorites Piano Disc 1/
/Lossless/Jimmy Abb/28 All Time Favorites Piano Disc 2/
For some reasons, SlimServer would always end up with 3 albums -
...Disc 1 & ...Disc 2 (correct), and 3rd album called "Jimmy Abb"
(incorrect). This is particularly annoying. After some fiddling around
I found out that SlimServer does not seem to like album directory names
beginning with numeric characters. Therefore I added an underscore
preceding the album name as below and it started to work correctly.
After the change, SlimServer recognizes there are two albums, not
three.
/Lossless/Jimmy Abb/_28 All Time Favorites Piano Disc 1/
/Lossless/Jimmy Abb/_28 All Time Favorites Piano Disc 2/
SlimServer Version: 6.1.1 - 3774 - Windows XP - EN - cp1252
