Album Artwork not scraped during server rebuild.

[KodiUser1138]

Rebuilding my entire Jellyfin server and re-creating my Movie Soundtracks library where, unless there is a specific artowrk file in the folder, the embedded album artwork is not being scraped into Jellyfin. This process worked fine for my other music library, but not for this one. I have never seen this behaviour before and can not find any setting that would tell me why this is happening. Even trying to rescan a specific album does nothing, though some albums are now importing artwork from the web which I do not want (I've already done the work curating everything). Any ideas what is going wrong here? Previously this just... worked.

Do you see anything in your logs? Can you initiate a scan then share the log via pastebin?

[KodiUser1138]

What should I look for in the logs? Getting my server back to almost being "done" again while hoping a drive that lost it's file system can be recovered but this artwork issue is a sore point for sure. Thanks as always for looking to help out!

You'd be looking for any issues with image extraction. Speaking of which, is the image extractor metadata provider enabled in the soundtrack library?

[KodiUser1138]

I think I tried to outsmart myself and not select any image or metadata downloading, but not sure since I've messed with a bunch of setting since. If I re-instate the embedded image extractor now, will that correct what has already been scanned? It doesn't seem to so far.

You can try using the "search for missing metadata" scan type after re-enabling the image extractor.

[KodiUser1138]

No, nothing Ive tried gets the embedded images back. I even ried making a new library from the same source, default settings and same results.

Can you show the output of ffprobe on some of your music whose images aren't scraped?

[KodiUser1138]

How would I go about doing that? (Tried Google, had to come ask anyways).

[TheDreadPirate]

Open a command prompt.

Code:

cd C:\Program Files\Jellyfin
ffprobe.exe "X:\Path\to\your\music.flac"
