Artist nfo files are not updating - PeterPan - 2024-09-23
Hey guys,
I am just in the process of moving my jellyfin server from a Synology docker container into an ubuntu lxc container on a new proxmox host. I want to use this lxc jellyfin instance for my music. I was able to move everything. Right now I had to troubleshoot my samba configuration because the permission where not set in a way that jellyfin had write access to the folders. But it is working now. While doing this troubleshooting, I noticed something. When you create add a new artist with an album, jellyfin will also create a nfo file for the artist. This nfo file also contains all the albums of the artist. But here comes my issue. This nfo file will not get an update when you add an additional album later on. You have to rescan the artist in order for it to update the nfo file. This does not feel right.
Cheers

I'm assuming you want Jellyfin to pick it up in real time. If that is the case, real time monitoring is not supported over network files systems.

Nop, you got me wrong. I have even disabled real time monitoring. I always scan manually. And it is not over the network. My music files are on the same ubuntu system as my jellyfin server.
My problem is that the artist.nfo is not getting an update when i add a new album and do a manuel scan for new files. The artist.nfo only gets updated when i do a manuel scan of the artist itself.

That sounds like a bug to me. Go ahead and submit a github issue.
