Coxeroni 26 Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) Unfortunately I have several albums which have their bonus tracks in a separate folder like this: music\Artist\Album_Title-Year music\Artist\Album_Title-(Bonus_Tracks)-Year Both folders appear as separate album. When I try to select both and use the option "group album versions" (I hope the name is correct, my client is german) I only see the spinner and nothing happens. The logs also does no show anything working in that direction. Is this the correct way to correct something like this or should I go a different way like rename the folder/files correctly? Thanks in advance for the help. Edit: Reading the naming guide I am a bit shocked that a pretty popular naming for multi-disc is missing imho: album\101-disc1-title1.mp3 ...201-disc2-title1.mp3 Am I the only one using multi-disc in the same folder with a three digit track- and disc number?

Luke 37188 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 At this time the group versions feature is only for video files. I haven't seen that file naming before but the naming shouldn't matter as we get the track and disc numbers from embedded tags. are your music files tagged with this information? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately yes they seem to be tagged. Since the files came as two seperate "albums" (i.e. "Album" and "Album (Bonus Tracks)") both are tagged as Disc 1. It seems as I cannot override the tags with whatever wicked file-naming I try So I guess I need to get the tags, do everything by hand in Emby, or live with it. Thanks for the answer anyway.

PenkethBoy 2063 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 use "mp3Tag" to change the tags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37188 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Right, we don't parse the file names at all, we just go by the data in the tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
