Luke 37096 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 @fuzy01let's look at the Whitney Houston examples in more detail. How are your Whitney Houston files named and organized? What else is in the directory with the music files? Can you please show that? Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzy01 1 Posted August 18, 2023 Author Share Posted August 18, 2023 First of all, thank you for trying to help. Your first question: „How are your Whitney Houston files named and organized?” I don’t know what you're thinking. I would rather show you the example of MC Hammer: In MP3tag only these tags are filled and all tracks are tagged the same way. Comparison between what I see in MP3tag and Emby: In my opinion the problem is that: Same Album Aritst tag, same Album tag and same Artist tag for each tracks, Emby thinks that each tracks have the same cover, because this is an album by the same artist. But this is a selection not a specific album. In the case of the fourth MC Hammer track, there is multiple artists in the artist field and in this case the embedded cover is used. In summary, for those tracks where these 3 tag field are the same, the cover of the first track is automatically used, not the embedded. Your second question: „What else is in the directory with the music files?” Nothing just the mp3 files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Luke 37096 Posted September 8, 2023 Solution Share Posted September 8, 2023 Quote Same Album Aritst tag, same Album tag and same Artist tag for each tracks, Emby thinks that each tracks have the same cover, because this is an album by the same artist. But this is a selection not a specific album. @fuzy01You're right. I think we're doing the right thing for most users. If you want a separate image extraction for every single track then we'd have to add a library option to control that. I'll try to get this into the settings UI for the 4.8 release, but if I don't, I'm adding a hidden config switch for the library options xml, ShareEmbeddedMusicAlbumImages. You'd set that to false. And then like changing any library option, you'd have to refresh metadata on existing tracks and check the box to replace existing images. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your reply in advance Looks like yes but as library option.xml are database only now you would have to change this hidden switch via the api "ShareEmbeddedMusicAlbumImages": true, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37096 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 We can also add this to the settings ui. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzy01 1 Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 I found the switch in the settings ui and it is also turned on, but nothing has changed. I put this hidden switch to the library options.xml but nothing has changed. After all my attempts i restarted the server and refreshed the metadata and checked the box to replace existing images. Then I deleted the server and created a completely new one from scratch (4.8.3.0) and still nothing changed. I do something wrong? do I need to turn something off for the setting to work?

You will query to get your libraries, copy your music library setup, then look at /libraryoptions at payload and apply your library settings noting not slight difference from query to options post . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
