Irrespective of disc numbering, there's one key thing I don't understand. Why doesn't JF group by album name tag? In my experience this is a very standard way of doing things. Why would something override this?

mellojello: I had this same issue and used MusicBrainz Picard to add the necessary metadata. See https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-music-album-with-multiple-disks.

My tracks are all ID3 tagged including Disc # and Total # Discs. There isn't a single other media manager that messes them up in this way. Something else is wrong here. I've also tested re-tagging the Disc # and Total Discs in JRiver Media Center and Mp3Tag. Nothing makes any difference. JellyFin duplicates every multi-disc because I use sub-folders.

So far i've tested by adding the following tags:

TOTALDISCS
TOTAL DISCS
DISCTOTAL

JellyFin can see the Disc # tags fine. The minute I move all the tracks into one folder it displays correctly as one album.

Why the heck is a sub-folder causing JF to ignore the tags?? This is poor design imo. This is a bug that needs fixing.
