Editing Music Metadata does nothing to affect sorting - jibarofoss - 2025-04-01
I have an album that was tagged incorrectly in the Album Artist field. Using the native metadata editor, I corrected all of the tracks. However, the bogus album artist entries still exist and refuse to go away no matter how many rescans I do. How do I fix this?

I THINK you have to fix the source. The tags in the music files.
Not sure if this is "by design" or a bug. But, IMO, fixing the source is preferable so that it will always be correct in the future if you had to rebuild your Jellyfin server for whatever reason.
