slyfox 42 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I am running Version 3.6.0.79 beta on Qnap. After loading my music into Emby, no alum art or metadata is shown. All of the files have been tagged with MusicBrainz Picard and are in m4a format. Here is a sample file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/ld9ekvqxh4ybd71/01_Arabian_Nights.m4a/file Why do I not see any metadata or album art?

Luke 37046 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Hi, what metadata is missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyfox 42 Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) I don't think there is any metadata at all. In the library settings, I unchecked all of the checkmarks to download metadata assuming that Emby will read embedded metadata.

slyfox 42 Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 I enabled the option to download metadata from MusicBrainz and album metadata appeared. Does this mean that Emby reads from MusicBrainz database or embedded metadata. Here is another sample file that has metadata album art but Emby does not see it. https://www.mediafire.com/file/p8g6kc99yp5bdzc/01_Остров_сокровищ_1.mp3/file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This site does not look trustworthy to me. They are requiring that I allow notifications in order to download the file. Or @@Happy2Play if you already have it. Thanks.

slyfox 42 Posted December 22, 2018 Author Share Posted December 22, 2018 I apologize. I did further investigation and there were problems with my files. They were not properly tagged. No complaints about Emby. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37046 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Thanks for the feedback! I was actually hoping to get a copy of that file so that i can test the embedded png though, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retested file in post 4 in a portable beta and this time the server didn't have a issue with the embedded png, so not sure what happened the first time. 3.6.0.80 Edited December 22, 2018 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
