Bug: Music Library Folder View Isn't Showing Folders

I've got a library with content type "Music."  All of the metadata downloaders are toggled off.  The library points to a folder containing subfolders like this - http://take.ms/tzkhd (named like Genres).

 

In Emby, when I browse by Folders, it shows this: http://take.ms/44EHa .  As you can see, it's showing every entry as "!Singles" - not by its Folder name. !Singles is a metadata value I use for the Album & AlbumArtist of individual songs in my collection, as you can see here in iTunes: http://take.ms/s31sU

 

Then, within each Genre-named subfolder are a combination of individual songs & lower-level subfolders representing albums, like this: http://take.ms/wmWOT . If I navigate into one of the identically-named "!Singles" folders shown by Emby, I get a long list of songs, with no way to navigate into the deeper-level folders: http://take.ms/DAutT

 

It seems as though "Folders" view is fundamentally unworking, and unless I'm missing something, there is no way to view Music by folders...?

Correct, our folder views are not perfect at this time given that type of complex structure. It's something we can look to improve in the future. Thanks
