talanor 4 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Hi, I recently subscribed to shows with an emoji in the album name mp3 tag. Emby does not recognize the string as one album (see picture below) I edited out the emoji out of file names with tagscanner and it works fine. But that will be an issue in the future as I don't really want to edit every single episode that comes out. The emoji in question is (even though I'd wager the issue concerns more than just this one). Thank you for your hard work. Best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37100 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Hi, never seen that before. Can you zip up that album and send it to me over PM? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talanor 4 Posted September 13, 2023 Author Share Posted September 13, 2023 Permission denied, however I managed to reproduce the issue with a sample of their publicly available files on the main feed, that I re-tagged with tagscanner.

Luke 37100 Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Hi, I looked at your files, and the emoji isn't causing any problem that I can see. The reason they're not getting grouped into a single album is because they do not have an albumartist tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talanor 4 Posted September 14, 2023 Author Share Posted September 14, 2023 Hi, thank you for looking into it. However I'm sorry but that's not the behavior I am observing on my end. See screens attached (I don't mind the name leak it's fine). 1. emoji in album name, no album artist = no grouping 2. no emoji in album name, no album artist = grouping 3. emoji in album name, album artist ("GCN") = no grouping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37100 Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Right, there could still be an issue with emojis, I'm just saying that it won't group them either unless there is an album artist. it's the combination of those two things that make the grouping unique. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talanor 4 Posted September 14, 2023 Author Share Posted September 14, 2023 Well, in example 2 it does group them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, yes, presumably because you have the folder structure option set to perfectly organized into artist/album/track. In this case it will the parent folder name two levels above the tracks as the album artist, so that's why you see albums created with the album artist of Podcasts. So yes there is an issue with having emojis in the album title. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37100 Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 What version of the server did you test with? It might already be resolved in the 4.8 beta channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talanor 4 Posted September 26, 2023 Author Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) Gave it (emby-server-synology72_4.8.0.47_x86_64.spk) a go. I can't see any change even after forcing the library to update files. Edited September 26, 2023 by talanor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talanor 4 Posted October 21, 2023 Author Share Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) Hello, not to be that guy, but the latest beta (55) doesn't solve the issue still. Any release plan / date ? Best ! Edited October 21, 2023 by talanor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37100 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Try refreshing the metadata on the existing content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talanor 4 Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 Ah indeed, that's my bad, I thought refreshing metadata was only against online metadata provider. I thought only "scan library files" was relevant ! It seems to work well so far, thanks ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
