Find music files in subfolders - mih - 2024-02-27

Everything works fine, but I a bit not understand one moment

I have folder structure like

music
    album1
        album1_track1.mp3
    album2
        album2_track1.mp3
        album2_track2.mp3
    track.mp3
    track2.mp3

Album1 and album2 was recognized. But I don't see any places where I can find track.mp3 and track2.mp3. Is it ok?
The same situation with tracks in another subfolders, that contain folders.

Our Music documentation has been updated relatively recently to make clear that unsorted music files are unlikely to be identified correctly.

This is really not ok. Are any ways to go around?

AFAIK, no. Even properly tagged music will have trouble being displayed properly.

Any plans to improve it? As I see, that your main competitor — Plex, has opportunity to show music in folders as on this screen — https://app.screencast.com/CgBrxf4hXx8K5
