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):
- SSH into my True NAS VM
- Navigate to the folder that contains the MP3s with the cd command
- Change file mode bits:
Code:# chmod 666 *mp3
- SSH into my Jellyfin VM
- Install "Mutagen"
Code:# apt install python3-mutagen
- Navigate to the folder that contains the MP3s with the cd command
- Change tag of MP3 files:
Code:# mid3v2 --TPE2 "Various Artist" *.mp3
- Navigate to "Dashboard" in the Jellyfin WebUI
- Navigate to "Libraries"
- Click "Scan All Libraries"
Please see the screenshot for the result :-)
