What music metadata is used - zikkrin - 2024-09-28

Hey,

I'm wondering if there's anywhere that lists what specific music metadata tags are imported and used by Jellyfin? I've tagged a lot of my files with Musicbrainz, and while I see a lot of this info was imported when inspecting the metadata Jellyfin has about a song, quite a bit of it isn't. It would really be nice to know document what fields Jellyfin is looking for. For example, I'm seeing that Musicbrainz populates "Record Label" but this never gets imported into Jellyfin, whereas some music I haven't tagged have associated record labels in Jellyfin; I'm guessing that Jellyfin is looking for a specific string in the tag field and it's not picking up "Record Label".

I believe this would be useful to add to the documentation. I'd be happy to add it myself if I had that list...

If you just "edit metadata" on a song, it will show all the fields that are available. And it seems that record labels aren't one of them.
