No Album Recognition - jawhett1 - 2023-11-25
Ive decided the best setup for m preferences is to have all of my songs in one folder. Properly tagged with metadata (ran through Picard). In the same folder i can have my m3u files as well. Jellyfin recognize all of my artists, and songs. and even their metadata labeled album. However if you view "albums it only shows albums where the file structure is Album -> Songs.
Is there anyway to have Jellyfin sort albums based on metadata and not file structure?
Wouldnt be a big issue but this trickles to the music client as well.

Web, Android, FinDroid, Roku, firestick
FinAmp, Web, music, Symfonium, roku, firestick
So literally every single client I have access to. So its a fundamental Jellyfin issue.

I am having the same issue... I have all MP3 Tag info populated via Picard. I also have all my songs in one folder rather than separated into album/artist/track subfolders. Documentation states that this is acceptable.
I have tried via the web interface and the Firestick 4K and on my Android phone.
In the web interface and Android phone, Albums does not populate at all. Genre populates, but when I select a genre, no tracks are listed. However, in both cases, if I hit Play All, it DOES play music and displays the album art on the currently playing track.
On the Firestick 4k Neither Albums nor Genres populates. There's no Play All button shown on the app.
When playing a song via the Artists or Album Artits tab, it shows album art and the album name, so the tags are clearly being read properly.
This appears to be primarily a Server issue.
