Remove recap from album?

[bhenstra]

Hello, 

I would like to know if it is possible to remove the recap from the album details? Please see the attached screenshot. I did mark the details I mean with the vertical red line. 

I did look into meta data and other options. But I couldn't find a way to filter out or remove the details. 

Thank you.

"Edit Metadata" for that album. Is it in the "Overview" field?

The easiest way is to use a music tagging program like Mp3tag & change "album artists (not artists)" to "Various Artists". You can do it with Jellyfin by editing the metadata for each song but that takes some time & will not actually be written to the files which is preferred.

Thank you. I didn't know it was called 'artist list'. I'm also not a native speaker of English... and find ways to express what I mean in the most clumsy ways.

Thank you. This did solve the problem. 

These are the steps I followed to change the tag of all the MP3 files (steps 4 - 7):

1. SSH into my True NAS VM
   
2. Navigate to the folder that contains the MP3s with the cd command
   
3. Change file mode bits:
   
   Code:

   # chmod 666 *mp3
4. SSH into my Jellyfin VM
   
5. Install "Mutagen"
   
   Code:

   # apt install python3-mutagen
6. Navigate to the folder that contains the MP3s with the cd command
   
7. Change tag of MP3 files:
   
   Code:

   # mid3v2 --TPE2 "Various Artist" *.mp3
8. Navigate to "Dashboard" in the Jellyfin WebUI
   
9. Navigate to "Libraries"
   
10. Click "Scan All Libraries"
    

Please see the screenshot for the result :-)

I encountered a similar problem with an album containing FLAC files. To address it, I utilized the 'metaflac' tool to configure the ALBUMARTIST.

Here are the steps.

Install the package 'flac':

Code:

apt update
apt install flac

Remove the tag

Code:

metaflac --remove-tag=ALBUMARTIST *.flac

Set the tag

Code:

metaflac --set-tag=ALBUMARTIST="Various Aristst" *.flac

Tip: to view tags, use the --show-all-tags option.
