The Web UI runs directly on the server and so it has full access to the
database. iPeng has to query that over the network.

Yet is uses the same API available to iPeng: CLI queries.

There is a default query which returns the default menus as they are
shown in the Logitech App, that might return the same information as the
web interface, at least in SBS 7.6 and LMS from 7.7 on. You can check

Correct.

that by looking at what Logitech's App shows (I'm not sure, it might as
well be wrong, too).

Unfortunately it's not easily verified, as we don't show the artist name in album track listings. Don't ask me why we don't do this (there's explicit code dealing with this). But just to make sure I enabled them, and the list would show track artists, as expected by flimflam. We give the track artist precedence of the albumartist for track listings (from Slim::Menu::BrowseLibrary):

# bug 17340 - in track lists we give the trackartist precedence over the artist
$_->{'artist'} = $_->{'trackartist'} if $_->{'trackartist'};

You might need to apply the same logic in iPeng?

You could file a bug or just ask Michael to fix it, he's probably the
only one who could do that.

Not to be fixed on the server side imho.
