I can't reproduce it here. Are you sure using MC on the server has the right display? Check your file properties and see if anything unusual is there.
I cannot duplicate this type of problematic display on my server computer either (i.e., all track column are presnt and all track info is displayed). Whereas I didn't have a library of music on the client, I copied several MP3s over and imported them. If I ask for a display of these tracks (as artist, album, or genre), they do not show properly either ... so it is not a problem with client/server relationship ... just this install of MC9 on this laptop. It's almost as if the "boxes" are a place holder for graphical info (e.g., album art) ... and the bottom box is much larger (same width, 4x height), and shows the track name below it (no other info ... e.g., no track#, time, etc). Is there a preference setting somewhere for a "graphical display?
Regarding the tracks' properties ... it is much different than MJ8, but all info seems correct.
I have the most recent display driver installed, but it could still be something similar.
Thanx for your support
