Luke 36997 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 But once it's scanned then it's no longer non-existent, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy 2063 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 What i think Eduardo is trying to say is For a new(copy) mp3 add two new artists which currently dont exist in your emby library One to the AlbumArtist tag - "testing xxxx" and one to Artist tag - "testing yyyy" let emby scan the file then try searching for "testing - xxxx" and "testing - yyyy" "testing - xxxx" will fail 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EduardoSantos 40 Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 It seems Emby still does not include "Album Artist" when searching. Search for "Quartetto Italiano" still has no results whereas this is an album artist and is correctly listed on Album artist's page.

EduardoSantos 40 Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Currently running v 4.0.1.0 Emby still does not retrieve results for "album artist" metadata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36997 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Can you please go over an example? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EduardoSantos 40 Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 (edited) Thanks Luke, As you can see, this album artist is "Quartetto Italiano". This info is on the Album artist field of each track. Track artists are, though, the actual players (this ensemble has changed their line-up various times):"Paolo Borciani, Elisa Pegreffi, Piero Farulli, Franco Rossi"Searching for Quartetto Italiano retuns no results. Please also consider rock bands such as Yes, Badfinger, Jefferson Starship, Velvet Underground, Rolling Stones and many others that in their lifespan changed members various times.This is why both fields do exist.

Luke 36997 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I still cannot reproduce this. Using search I am able to find both album artists and track artists. On that screen, when you click on Quartetto Italiano, what do you see there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EduardoSantos 40 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) This is what I get from the link. This is not the problem. I still cannot reproduce this. Using search I am able to find both album artists and track artists. On that screen, when you click on Quartetto Italiano, what do you see there? Did you try with an album artist who is not listed as any track artist? It is really very simple: album artists wich are not listed as track artists will not appear on search results. Simple as that. I have tested it on four Emby environments and as already suggested, I can send you a bunch of MP3 files for you to reproduce.

EduardoSantos 40 Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 I must admit I have been insisting on this issue. Did a lot of tests.I agree the issue does not happen on all albuns. May I ask you to add the attached MP3 files to your library and search for "Quartetto Italiano"? This music album has been tested on various environments and Emby will not bring results for the album artist ("Quartetto Italiano").

PenkethBoy 2063 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 @@EduardoSantos Ok just had a play with these files With your files as downloaded Quartetto Italiano - appears on the Album Artists but not on Artists pages And searching for Quartetto Italiano does not bring up any results.
