I really want to use Jellyfin for music, but unfortunately it separates albums based on directories and not by reading the metadata, so if you have an album separated into "Disc 1", "Disc 2", etc, each disc shows up as a separate album.
I really don't want to restructure my library just for Jellyfin, so I basically can't use it.
- agnishom 2y agoDoes it help to connect a different frontend app like Finamp to your jellyfin server?
- LeoPanthera 2y agoJellyfin maintains its own server-side database, the client you use is irrelevant.
- flkenosad 2y agoHow hard would it be to fork and make the change?
- crtasm 2y agoThis happened with my library too but they fixed it a few updates ago, all I had to do was let the scheduled full scan run.
- meonkeys 2y agoPretty sure it does use metadata and folder/filename as fallback. Musicbrainz Picard is great for normalizing metadata for music files/albums, maybe give that a shot.
- LeoPanthera 2y agoIt does read metadata, but splits albums by directory regardless. And my metadata is already correct.
