Content displayed from multiple libraries - londonjustin - 2024-08-10

Hi all
Fairly new to jellyfin and already really enjoying it. However, I have a small but annoying problem with my music libraries. On my PC, my music is separated into three distinct folders:
  • Multichannel
  • High resolution
  • [everything else]
I've created three Jellyfin libraries accordingly. However, when I browse any of the libraries by artist (or album artist) it will list content from all three of the music libraries. How can I stop this from happening? When I'm bowsing the Multichannel library, for example, I only want to see content from the Multichannel folder ...
Huge thanks in advance for any assistance Smiling-face

That's default behavior across all library types.

All show library will have their "more like this" recommendations pulled from all show libraries accesible to the current user. Same for movie libraries and music libraries too.

The only way to accomplish what you want would be to create a user for each music library, and only give access of a single music library to each user (and block the others from them). That way, a user will only be recommended music from a single library type.

To ask for what you want as a feature, check if it doesn't exist first, then if not, submit a feature request here: http://features.jellyfin.org/
