Songs by multiple artists are being saved as a single artist, no separator or anything...

This is what shows up under my artists...
But weirdly enough, no data is stored about having multiple artists, this should not be an issue to begin with... In older versions of Jellyfin, this worked fine for me without this issue, running Jellyfin 10.10.3 Stable via lsio Docker on my own hardware.
Let's see this song as an example:

We can clearly see the artist name is "*NSYNCJustin Timberlake", but this data isn't saved at all on the server files:

And here's the mediainfo for this song:
I already tried rescanning the library and removing, then adding the library back to fully clean the data. The songs work though, just with incorrect artists. Back when I first added the library, in 2022 (Jellyfin 10.8.x), this wasn't an issue. Nothing was changed in the meantime. I have more than 135k songs (all organized the same way this is, and all with the same issue), I cannot fix this by hand. What can I do?
