promytius 1 Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 I hope this is the right forum for this issue. I'm having trouble getting Emby to see things correctly. For instance, it sees the White album, it sees the first cd of 25 Blues Masters, but it doesn't see the rest of the Blues Masters cds, and makes just silly additions to the playlist tree. The ripping program recognized the series of CDs during the rip, and suggested appropriate (used) folder names. My HDD:\Music \Blues Masters \cd1 \cd2 \cd3 \cd4Emby:Music25 Blues Masters 25 Blues Masters Vol. 1 J. Reed (from a totally seperate folder!) Beathovan (from a totally different - everything!)I used a professional CD ripper to do this. I successfully ripped the White Album this way and it works perfectly. Emby lists 30 songs in one directory with the folder structure:\Beatles \Disk 1 \Disk 2Can anyone explain what's going wrong? Since it all works on tags, and the tags were all present in the ripping, where's the error? Thanks.
Happy2Play 9229 Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Best guess mis-identification since "Blues Masters" and "25 Blues Masters" are not the same. Look at the external ids that were fetched. And you would have to compare the tags on the tracks also. Does this happen in web client also? This I don't believe is a Roku issue.

Luke 39008 Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Why do you think it recognized J.Reed underneath 25 blues masters? can you show a screenshot of what leads you to believe that? thanks !

Jdiesel 1253 Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) If you search the album "25 Blues Masters" in Musicbrainz it shows up as 4 individual albums not one. Unfortunately the software you used to rip the cd doesn't used the name naming convention as the metadata provider. If the 4 albums on musicbrainz match what you have ripped I recommend renaming each of the 4 cd's to "25 Blues Masters Vol. 1", "25 Blues Masters Vol. 2", ..... https://musicbrainz.org/search?query=25+Blues+Masters&type=release&method=indexed You can also add the MusicBrainz Release ID to the media info to manually indentify an album. In the case of 25 Blues Masters Vol. 1 the id is "d58afb67-9eaf-4175-8dad-85bdb13ed831" Edited October 11, 2017 by Jdiesel

If you see the same thing in the web app you could easily take screen grabs there. However, it appears the others may be correct and it is a simple mis-identification due to naming.
