Some albums aren't included in artist's album listing - flyx - 2024-05-18

Two albums in my library are linked to the correct artist, but on the artist's view in Jellyfin, the albums aren't listed:

   

Clicking the artist link throws me here:

   

As you can see, the album is not listed. Another album by the same artist has the same problem.

Interestingly, going to the artist from one of the listed albums gives a different view (notice the artist picture and backdrop which wasn't there before):

   

I dug around a bit on my server and I noticed that there are two entries for the artist:

Code:
/var/lib/jellyfin/metadata/artists/Mr Hurley & Die Pulveraffen
/var/lib/jellyfin/metadata/artists/Mr. Hurley & Die Pulveraffen

Both have an NFO with the same title and same musicbrainz artist ID. Just the folder name is different. I deleted the one with the wrong name and restarted Jellyfin but it did not fix the problem.

How do I fix this?

It sounds like the problem lies with the internal metadata of the music. I've had similar things happen in the past and the only real solution is to grab Picard MusicBrainz application or beets terminal software. Find the album and match up the songs with the album in one of these pieces of software. That or just edit the artist and album artist names in the files directly to add that period between "Mr." and "Hurley"
