If you don't mind the audio being routed via the phone (I don't think WiiM will connect to the remote server) then Symfonium and Navidrome should work.

ID3 stores multi-value tags in a single field separated by a delimiter, which for ID3v2.3 is / and ID3v2.4 is nul. Unfortunately / clashes with AC/DC so when parsing would become two artists "AC" and "DC", so other delimiters became commonplace - most notably nul from Mp3tag. I tagged a couple...

@TRex74 your other post gave more context; are you talking about content served by Emby?

So you'd like all your albums spit by track artist? Tracks should, at a minimum, be grouped by album and albumartist to form albums/releases.

As you're probably aware the ID3v2.3 "standard' is a mess, with many variations of multi-value delimiter in use e.g. '/', ' / ', nul e.t.c. Not to detract from your request, but have you considered moving to ID3v2.4?

The OP is saying that the albums are being split by track artist instead of album artist, which I thought had already been fixed. @TRex74 what device are you using?

When using mconnect is the problem confined to the Now Playing screen? If it is then it's likely some of your files contain conflicting embedded artwork.

I would start by checking those tracks for embedded artwork, as some players prioritise file metadata and artwork over that provided by the server.

Yes Lite is ok

To confirm an app related issue try browsing with a different control point e.g. BubbleUPnP (Android) or mconnect (iOS). The browsing hierarchy will be different, but if the correct artwork is shown then it rules out anything related to the USB drive (containing the first stage of indexing).

Clear the app cache and if that doesn't fix it perform a rescan. Track ids get reassigned during full rescans (or if you've deleted files.db) which can break artwork links and playlists.

What if the wife wanted something different? ;)

Out of interest what apps were you using? Just curious if the transformation was applied in real-time (as it received the results from a UPnP server).

Changing your tags to "Beatles, The" isn't "proper tagging", and I'm not sure it's what the OP wants to see in album and track listings.

I too prefer to sort and display "Band, The" when used in indexes - though I use the proper names everywhere else (album and track listings) - but it seems the OP wants to display the literal "The Beatles" under "B" not "Beatles, The". This approach aligns with how most servers implement sort...
