    Hi, I have a folder structure like this for the latest music releases:

    Code:
    2023.05-MAY
    |_artist1-song1
    |_artist2-song2
    |_artist3-song3

    2023.09-SEMPTEMBER
    |_artist4-song4
    |_artist5-song5
    |_artist6-song6

    obviously JF doesn't like this structure very much and it creates somewhat confusing folders/poster/cover for me.
    Is there really no solution for this structure? Even just the folder view would be fine.
    thanks

    You can turn on folder view, but it's in addition to the existing library view, so it's in addition to the "confusing" one you already get. Jellyfin seems to support a few different options for music organization which are "none", artist-only folders, and artist > album.

    You could throw these under a "Various Artists" header and use the date as an album and have better success most likely.

    Thanks, then maybe I solved it with Mp3tag.
    I change the ALBUM and ALBUM ARTIST tag of all mp3 whith the folder name and magically everything looks the way it should.
    It's not the best because I will have to update the entire library (and it will cost me time for synchronization between the various nas... adsl here) but aesthetically it's what I was looking for.
    Is there a way to change the jf tags without changing the file tags?

    I ask another thing, while I listen to an artist of a random song, can I have a "direct link" to the singer's other songs in the library?
