I've been fixing my music collections' tag, and found that for some file, even I write the tag correctly, Emby is reading something confusing.

So I went to log, copied the `ffprobe` line and run manully, found that the bundled `ffprobe` is discarding the ID3 tags.

Then I tries the ffmpeg I installed, which version is 6.0, is correctly reading the file metadata. Is it a issue related to the version or emby's ffmpeg compile flag?

Sorry for the delayed response and here is the detail.

First, I'm running the latest Emby Server on my Macbook Pro, which may unrelated to the problem.

The metadata of the song looks like(not full):image.png.bd1a3078977d5a3dabd7518e43328036.png:

And this is how it has been analyzed by `ffprobe` in the log: 

2023-05-31 02:32:32.821 Info MediaProbeManager: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Execute: /Applications/EmbyServer.app/Contents/MacOS/ffprobe -i file:"/Users/ramen/Music/Ripped/2020 秋 M3/bce02umdl/4_-_Ruin_Us.wav" -threads 0 -v info -print_format json -show_streams -show_format
2023-05-31 02:32:32.877 Info MediaProbeManager: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Process exited with code 0 - Succeeded

If I copy the previous command and run it manually, the output is: 

$ /Applications/EmbyServer.app/Contents/MacOS/ffprobe -i file:"/Users/ramen/Music/Ripped/2020 秋 M3/bce02umdl/4_-_Ruin_Us.wav" -threads 0 -v info -print_format json -show_streams -show_format

Using the `ffprobe` which I installed by homebrew and apply the same arguments, the result is:

Thanks for the file. This seems to be about something that has been changed in ffmpeg 6.

A regular ffmpeg 5.1 build gives the same output as ours:

We will update to ffmpeg 6 in a while, but only after the 4.8 release of Emby server.

Thanks

Nicely done!

FYI, after some extensive search, I've found the original issue https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/9848, it's surely a ffprobe failure and should be fixed in 6.0.

Thanks a lot for the pointer. Given that it's a really tiny fix, we can see whether we can backport this into our current ffmpeg.
